Reptiles, I just love these guys.  They perform a very important function in our fragile eco system.  Doing their part to help keep a balance at the ground level, the very foundation of our planet Earth.  Toads and frogs are one of the first to shows signs if something is out of balance in our environment.  Lizards are the fearless, but comical acrobats in my garden, and love looking at themselves in a mirror.  It is rare I get to see the snakes that live here, usually only the skins they have shed as they grow.
