when i hose the garden i always disturb the frogs which hop out quickly, startled by the sudden shower. this distresses me because i am deathly afraid of frogs and to have them popping up all over my erstwhile peaceful garden scene is not at all pleasant. at the same time i'm afraid that the jet of water might hit them and hurt them it is pretty strong and frogs aren't very fast besides which unlike turtles haven't got protective body covering. i could use a watering can which i prefer anyway that seems to be properly attentive to plants, but then again i am more reluctant to use it now that i know there are frogs, because that puts me so much nearer to the frog when it comes out. i wish someone else will water the plants.
