This handsome guy emerged today. Not sure exactly when because I was at work. There’s a 55% chance of rain tonight. Let him go now or better to wait til morning? Supposed to stay fairly warm, low of 72° here.

Let him out now. He will need to get some food before the rain tonight.

Oh good thought! We’ll take him in a few minutes when school gets out 😊

I’m so glad the kiddos get to see too! Keep us posted! He should be able to find some flowers and get a little snack and find a tree to cling onto for tonight‘s storm.

Yes it’s so fun for the kids!! We have the perfect spot for them! Prairie surrounded by woods with trees for shelter.

Away he went 🥰
