We are just thawing out, and the grass is getting greener. I love your garden! And I have little toads houses, because my dogs and cats like to torture the poor things. Happy gardening!! xox Pam
ReplyDeleteHow fun it is to visit your garden! I see your lizards have a 5 stars treatment! Also, I am VERY intrigued by this cocoon..what's inside?
