we successfully turned one of our tadpoles into a frog. it's not like we really did anything anything magical. just kept it alive long enough for the transformation to happen on it's own...but that is truly a miracle in this house. since a frog actually needs food to survive, we decided to set him free. his chances of survival are much higher in the owl, snake, duck, muskrat, beaver infested stream by our house than home with us. Mclayne thought it was quite an adventure setting him free.
we do still have one tadpole that we caught IN MAY that seems to be frozen in time. and once again, the fact he's still alive after four months is quite amazing. and...
we now also have another frog from our walk last night. he/she is sticking around only because it is LETTER "F" at preschool this week and Mclayne wants to show all of her friends. i actually bought crickets at the pet store for it today to keep it alive for the week. it will be nice to be animal free soon!
