Rescuing critters from the garage seems to be a summertime
farm ritual.
Male Ruby-throated Hummingbird
Hummers are a routine rescue. Some say they might be attracted to the door's red emergency release handle. This little one got tuckered out trying to find his way. I was able to take him to a feeder.
American Toad
Then there is Mr. Toad. For three summers we've found him making himself at home under things like pool rafts. Last week I opened the garage door and there he was sitting on the other side waiting to come in again!
Rat Snake
Last year it was this friend that caught us by surprise. It was our first encounter of the snake kind and Handsome Husband was a real trooper. I'm okay with the toads and birds, but I think I'll leave the big 'uns for the tough guy.
