Outside Treasures

New discovery of a different type lizard we've never seen before.  This Blue Tail Skink was inside a bag of mulch we've had sitting outside the last couple of years.  We planted a grapefruit tree and when Terry opened the bag of mulch, this little guy made himself known.

On a piece of dead wood sitting in the back on a table, I saw this small mushroom growing.

As for the magnolia, there was a tree in the back that was growing kind of strange (top heavy with a ball like shape up top) and would never flower.  We decided we would take it down but left the trunk in the ground a certain height with the intentions of putting a bird feeder on top.  To our surprise, it started sprouting limbs and leaves and now has a gorgeous shape to it; AND, early this year it actually produced a single flower and I found the pod sitting on the ground.
