May I introduce to you Tiny, our toad. My kids "rescued"/"kidnapped" some tadpoles last year out of the creek, and sure enough one lived....Welcome Tiny Toad. It has been an adventure learning how to take care of a toad, they only eat live food, and like water, but not too much of it. The live food thing is not fun, but since we kidnapped him, I feel responsible and we are taking as good care of him as possible. He really is tiny, maybe an inch now. I think he is soon cute, maybe because he is so tiny. He is not easy to photograph, being so small and usually under things, but I captured this, and now share it with you.
Not sure what these very tiny buds are but liked that a narrow beam of morning sunlight was illuminating just a few of them. Handheld.
Photos from a quick morning visit to Pollinator Prairie. Rather cool, no butterflies so grabbed some of plants, insects, etc. Just saving more photos now that computer is working again. :) No need to comment.
This was on an abandoned farm property with a larger house and a trailer. This might have been used by a relative or hired help.
For New Music Monday, I want you to all take a listen to Tiny Ruins out of New Zealand....lovely disarming stuff (Their album Brightly Painted One made my top albums of 2014 at #8)

Tiny but mighty
Harbour Air’s de Havilland DHC-2 Beaver
I didn’t have the chance to fly in this little guy, I flew on the larger (14 seat) de Havilland DHC-3T Otter, but it was this little guy that captured my heart. Sturdy, stocky, and bursting with muscle, he seems particularly well suited for Harbour Air’s Whistler location 😊

« Harbour Air is proud to operate the largest all-seaplane fleet in North America. Our fleet primarily consists of a variety of Canadian built de Havilland Beaver, Single Otter and Twin Otter aircraft which are envied worldwide for their history, craftmanship, safety record and workload capability. » (1)
«In 1947, the de Havilland Aircraft Company of Canada introduced the DHC-2 Beaver aircraft. They produced approximately 1,600 before ceasing production in 1967. Known by some as the "workhorse of the north", the Beaver has been instrumental in the development of modern frontiers around the world. It is also the first single-engine utility aircraft to be turbine-powered, with de Havilland producing over 60 Turbo units before production ceased. » (2)

Tiny graceful tree frog on a blade of grass, very early into dawn, norman creek.
I spotted this tiny flower growing where a recreational park and a canyon met. Perhaps the plant was benefitting from the watered grass nearby and was able to show off it's hidden beauty. Maybe the modern carnation got its start from this week.
March 3rd is the Doll Festival (Girls day) in Japan. It's called Hinamatsuri.
We decorate Ohinasama doll for Hinamatsuri.
Our Ohinasama doll is very very tiny.
We decorate it, and pray for the girl's healthy growth.
They originally decorate the peach flower with it. But I didn't use it...

MrClean1982 and his wife gave me a beautiful Coach umbrella for Christmas.
It's been raining on and off ever since.
Coincidence?

At no more than 1-2mm long, this little spider is contemplating its long journey across the lily petal.
I've been trying off and on for the past few months to get a shot of the Ruby-crowned Kinglet but it has proved to be a most difficult thing to accomplish!
I've come to the conclusion that the smaller the bird the faster it is! The Kinglets seem to take off the instant they land on something, making the majority of shots I've gotten rather blurry.
And while this isn't the best shot - it IS a shot. More or less to prove they are still here. And while I desperately want a shot of one showing off that ruby crown, I've learned only the males have that ruby crown, and it isn't always visible. So now I'm wondering is this tiny cutie, who paused for a mere nanosecond, is a female?

This is one of our areas more colorful spiders. It's an orchard orb weaver. They are tiny, so their beauty is hidden from most observers. From a distance, they are about the size of a thick grain of rice, and eyes see them as a pale-greenish or white speck. However, get in close and they are like a work of art! Blues, aquas, greens, yellows, plus black red and white all make up their distinctive pattern.

Another Tiny Turbo from the MOC vault.
When I was building these in the summer of 2020, Jonah suggested that I build one in the WhiteTron color scheme. Since I had these sweet white tires from Walter, I thought it was a good idea. This is my favorite from this batch. This is the last from these, but I'm up to six new ones now, so I'll be posting those soon.
This tiny little Allen hummingbird is a fierce defender of it's territory… constantly chasing away other hummingbirds coming close to the feeder in my yard!
