Earlier this week Allison caught the smallest lizard I have ever seen. After the cold winter, we did not see any lizards for a while, but they appear to be making a comeback.
Allison caught her first bass this morning in the lake behind our house. She was proud of herself.
The kids started throwing lunch meat in the water to feed a soft shell turtle. It was lots of fun watching him come up to eat. He kind of blends in but he is the brown circle toward the top of the picture.
Leah decided it would be fun to drop the hook she had been fishing with in the water to see what the turtle would do...........he took the bait. Literally. He had been cautious to not come too close to the shore so I was sure when Leah dropped the hook in, he would not come up to it because it was pretty close to us. In seconds, he saw the bait and grabbed it before I could get it out of the water. Poor guy. I had to work pretty hard to get that hook out.
We found this grasshopper on the pool screen. I used to see these all the time growing up, but this is the first one I have seen here in Florida. The girls thought he was really cool and had to have their pictures made with him.
