week 35, post 1:fecundity!

Everyone knows this area is just plain lush with fauna and flora -- especially flying fauna (horrid things). Every night I kill at least 3 or 4 before going to bed, so they don't kill me first. The other night I missed at least one and it bit me on the cheek. So I turned over and it bit me on the other cheek! So I got up and killed it! Sorry, Jesus. It just doesn't work with mosquitos.

So it was with glee I witnessed the hatching of the dragonflies and also a hatching of baby lizards here near the front door of the church. Sissy has decided that it's great sport to (try to)catch a dragonfly. And one of the baby lizards (so cute!)has decided to move in with us. So we have an office lizard. Don't ask for a photo -- he won't hold still for closeups! But he's welcome to all the flying fauna he can get.

It's just too bad these wonderful creatures have to wait until August to show up. April looks like a much better idea to me.

Bon appetit!
