Today,in addition to our caterpillar,
that is comfortably resting in our butterfly habitat,
my students found a bitty toad!
We all had to get a good look,
we even showed the "babies" next door,
who were out having a water play day.
With my Principal's normal grace,
she accepted it all as a matter of course,
and we now have a new pet.
I normally would be against capturing a wild critter.
However,
I can keep it safer in our classroom
where it will be looked at
and not repeatedly caught
or squished by the lawn people
like the last toad we found...
(yikes)
