Wildlife



I planted my peppers finally on Wednesday along with a row of bush beans, two pots of cucumbers, a row of Little Gem lettuce and a hill of butternut squash.



This toad was in the garden.  I think he's made a home there.  Good!





As I was finishing up I spotted a turtle by the garden gate.  Was he going in or out?  I didn't know but with all the mud on him I figured he needed to be relocated to the pond and that's where I took his photo.  



Look at that long tail.


He blends in with the surroundings well.  


When I went back 10 minutes later I couldn't spot him anywhere.
I wonder if he will eat goldfish?
