Vero Lake: Living in the Country here in Florida

  I love seeing all these little frogs! I see so many since all the rain and Hurricane Ian. So many of them, especially in the mornings! Look here in the top photo two in one Culusia plant on the leaves, so cute! Another on the Porter Weed. I also see a larger one on the window when I removed one of the hurricane panels today. The other day when I was walking in toward the house, a little frog even jumped on my foot. They are very cute. I saw so many tadpoles in the standing water for a few weeks in the canals around the house, so many, so that is why we have so many frogs now. They are very cute. I love all wildlife. I saw something this even run fast across my back yard, it looked black and white, like a dog or goat, then I remembered it said on a sign down the road that someone lost their goat. What a blessing all of God's creatures! 

  Almost daily I am visited by some of God's creatures here where we live! What a blessing from our Lord! I love seeing all the birds, blue jays, cardinals, sand hill cranes, ibis, redheaded woodpeckers, mockingbirds, squirrels, bunnies, owls, eagles, turtles, etc.  Even I see a nice black snake often, and lots of butterflies, dragonflies, and bees. I love seeing all of these critters out and about! It reminds me God is all around us and is blessing us with his creations to enjoy, like a beautiful flower!  God has really made Heaven here on Earth for us, but unfortunately, man ruins that by their greed, corruption, fraud, selfishness, mediocrity, ego, hate, over development, and destruction. All we can do is pray for a wonderful world and for each other that we all turn to God and live by His laws and love. Maybe then we can restore and have Heaven here on Earth again! Thank you God for all your blessed creatures and their visits! 

  I have never seen such a huge yellow grasshopper like this in my entire life! Amazing! God has blessed this Earth with so many amazing critters and insects like this! I see a lot of grasshoppers here, big small and all colors it seems! What a blessing!
