Toad-venture Update

We have been busy in the yard this summer, so I haven't been able to take a moment to update the blog with information about the Toad-venture. Unfortunately, our little experiment didn't work out with the "pond" in the backyard. I had to replace the water everyday due to what I thought was extreme evaporation rates, however it turns out that our dog, Kiara, was drinking all of the water whenever we let her out in the yard alone. So...it didn't work out. We did, however, find some tadpoles in a lake in Lakeland, so Mika was able to experience their transformation into little toads. What fun it was for him! We released them into the wild a few weeks ago.
