Animal Events




Last week we found this tiny baby jack rabbit. It was hiding on our back patio. We also have lots of quail that go through our yard, and little prairie dogs all around. The bad news is that 2 neighbors 2 streets away have spotted 2 baby rattle snakes! ugh!


Also, for science, we ordered frog eggs a few months ago. We have observed the eggs hatch and then we watched the the tadpoles grow. Well a couple of nights ago our biggest tadpole got legs. The kids named him "Legs". Anyways, he was dead, floating on his belly this morning. The kids were really sad and Jackie was crying hard. We went to flush him and I just had to take a picture. Joanna wasn't sad at all, she just kept asking, "I flush him?" Janae is our sensitive and private one. She went outside to be alone with Mia, that is why she is not in the picture.
