Little Surprises

I often find that it's the little, unexpected surprises that make my day. This morning, I had two while watering the yard (yes, the weather is heating up already).

A perfectly camouflaged toad...
...and the first flawless and fragrant gardenia blossom.
May your day be filled with sweet little surprises today!

    My favorite flowers are those that are white, interesting as my favorite color is the opposite. Thanks for the comment regarding my pictures I truly enjoy yours as well.

    And please be careful where you step, that toad is very hard to see.

    Surprises are wonderful. Sweet toad - have you ever taken a look at their eyes? They are so beautiful. And they are far more intelligent than frogs.
    Lovely gardenia and wonderful photos.
    Have a lovely day!
