WELCOMING THE RAIN

The blooming of rain orchids again  correctly foreshadowed precipitation  within days . As a result , our  resident  moaning  and  barking  frog  emerged  from  the  depths of  a  large garden  pot  when  raindrops  were  heard  and gazed  about  the  domain .  When  the  light  rain stopped, realising  it  was not going to produce swimming conditions, he retreated  into  the dark  underworld .
