Morning Swimmers

 Sitting outside by my pool early sunday morning, I noticed something jump in.  As I went to investigate, it was 2 frogs....a smaller frog on top of the bigger green frog.  Then they started shooting out black eggs; not sure if you can see them to clearly in the 2nd picture; but there was hundreds of eggs.  Of course, the eggs did not survive in the pool with the pool pump running.

Baby Mockingbirds

Working in the yard, we cut down a small tree; but then noted a bird with a worm in her mouth flying around frantically.  I ran down to the road, where my son placed the tree.  I found a nest with 2 baby birds.  With no other trees in the front yard; we secured the tree against the garage and placed the babies back in their nest.  Both mother and father mockingbird were happy and happy to dive  bomb us whenever we went near the tree again.  Three days later, we saw the babies perched on the branches and now they are gone.....flew the nest.  Now if I can get my  son to fly from the nest.
