155/365: "These aren’t the droids we’re looking for... You can go about your business... Move along." ~ Obi Wan/Stormtrooper, Star Wars
This morning I went out to water my bulb and flower garden in the front yard, and now that it's starting to get hot, I've been adding water to Lucky's Pond almost every day as well. However, this morning I was about to turn the hose on when I noticed an enormous TOAD in the middle of Lucky's Pond! He sat there with his eyes just above the water, still as a statue! I didn't have my camera with me and when I came out again, the toad had hopped out, booooooo!! However, I thought I might know where it had gone, so I quietly peeked into the weeds where I saw a smaller toad last year. DISCO!! There, snuggled down into a depression in the dirt next to Lucky's Pond was the toad! It sat, still as a stone, and I could almost hear it in my mind..."I am a rock....I am just some lumps of dirt...nothing to see here...move along..." :D Moving very, very slowly, I held the grass and weeds out of the way with one hand so I could take pictures with the other! What fun!! After I got half a dozen images, I carefully pushed the grass and weeds back to cover him up and left as silently as I could. I also got a close-up of his eye, which I've included today, as well as another picture from my garden photo shoot over at my friend's home last week! :)
Star Wars is an American epic space opera franchise centered on a film series created by George Lucas. The film series has spawned an extensive media franchise called the Expanded Universe including books, television series, computer and video games, and comic books. These supplements to the two film trilogies have resulted in significant development of the series' fictional universe. These media kept the franchise active in the interim between the film trilogies. The franchise depicts a galaxy described as far, far away in the distant past, and it commonly portrays Jedi as a representation of good, in conflict with the Sith, their evil counterpart. Their weapon of choice, the lightsaber, is commonly recognized in popular culture. The fictional universe also contains many themes, especially influences of philosophy and religion.
