Raining Salamanders
We had severe thunderstorms Tuesday night with very high winds and hail that cut a lot of leaves off our trees, most of which ended up in the pool. The first order of business yesterday morning was to empty the skimmers. I found 4 of these in one skimmer, only one was still alive (we have a salt water pool):  I didn't know we have salamanders in the area. There is nothing close to a compatible habitat for them in or near my yard. The only option is they fell from the sky!  |

We used to have lots of sallies around here....too many farm chemicals and other stuff in the world have been really hard on their population  Glad that one of yours made it. |
| Imagine the updrafts needed to carry the sallies across the sky! If they could talk, what a story they could tell, "We aren't in Kansas anymore Toto." |
| Frogs falling from the skies. Makes one think about old Charlton Heston movies... |
| Interesting! Haven't seen those here but... We have found some strange creatures in our pool this year too. We have turtles-two of them keep getting in and then can't get out. We take them out and a couple of days later they are back. We repeat the process--I guess they just like to float around in there.  |
| We had the same thing with a turtle last year then found out he was the neighbor's pet that got lose. I asked them how in the world a turtle ran away from them. I think it was Mom that got tired of taking care of it. |
