So Much Life

So much life has sprung into our little world at such a sudden pace. Where to begin to describe it all? Yesterday Lindley saw leeches feeding on tadpole eggs in our pond. We walked to the pond with my father after dinner to have a look, and spotted one leech...slipping in and out of the pond foliage. He was light brown with neon spots; there was a certain grace about him.
In the front I found the severed wing of a Luna moth and other creepy characters clinging to the foundation. One moth I mistook for a rusty nail, but it moved when I touched it!
It's been a dry month, but the wild plants are lush.
