A Gift from a Grateful Guest

We had some weather issues yesterday late afternoon in Phoenix. Below are some okay pics, but to really get the full effect, check this out.

We went out on the front porch for a moment to see how bad it was gonna get (answer: really bad!) and the Toad (remember Toad?) came hopping out of my Lantana to hide up by the door behind an old milk can I have there. Little Man was concerned for Toad's comfort and put some grass and weeds there for him to rest on, which promptly blew away. When the dust started to roll over us, we headed inside and left Toad to his own devices. Toad was a good guest and thanked us properly for our hospitality. It was only when I found his little gift that I realized how scared he was during the storm:

Yes...it is exactly what it looks like. I'll have to rethink my open invitation to Toad until he gets a handle on his bowel issues.
