🌿 BACKYARD BEASTS AND GARDEN ZEN
Why Frogs and Toads Just Changed My Life (Kind of)
So we’re outside. Sun shining. Good food. Deep convos. The flowers are vibin’. Classic quality time. Then suddenly — 💥 BAM — “Hey, there’s a TOAD!”
I look. It’s not just one. We’re talkin’ at least TWO toads and a ninja frog hiding like it’s a covert op. 🐸
⸻
🔥 LITTLE AMPHIBIANS, BIG LESSONS
These aren’t just random garden squatters.
The toad? Pure grit. Dude looks like he’s been through some stuff.
The frog? Camouflaged like a green SEAL Team Six member.
Here’s the thing — you don’t get these animals unless your garden is thriving. That means: no toxins, clean water, balance.
That’s ROI, baby.
⸻
💬 LIFE LESSONS STRAIGHT FROM THE POND
1️⃣ OWN YOUR TEXTURE – Smooth or bumpy, you’ve earned those layers.
2️⃣ STEALTH WINS – Be like the frog. Chill until it’s go time.
3️⃣ CROAK PROUDLY – Speak up when it matters… then take a nap in a sunbeam.
⸻
🌸 So yeah, it was a family day. With grilled food, deep chats, and unexpected wisdom from amphibians.
Turns out, sometimes your best life coach is a warty, blinking potato with legs. And im pretty excited to have the pleasure to host them in our garden!

I dig your amphibious lessons and photos, @borniet! Out here we have the South American giant toad and the coqui tree frog from Puerto Rico, that sings all night long. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

Hahaha...their size difference is quite stark indeed! They both come out at night, though the small coquis are the most vociferious by far. I'm listening to a chorus of them as I type this! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

Oh! So nice!!!! I love it when they do that! Since we only have a few in our garden, it is more a background noise, but in some ponds in public parcs, it can be so incredibly loud! Love it! :-)

Yep, I love their song. It's funny, though, as some people can't sleep with them doing their thing all night. It never bothered me at all. I remember ponds at night when I lived in the NE US, it was super loud like that too..lol! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

Since it is being sold now as "meditation sound", it must have something soothing to it I guess :-D lol
Anyway, that is also how I experience it...
