When Anaya walked into her garden one sunny morning, she stopped in her tracks. High up on a low branch, in a little woven cup of twigs, something was sitting quietly. At first glance, she thought one of her backyard birds had returned early to nest. But when she looked closer, she blinked in disbelief.

Nestled snugly in the middle of the bird’s nest wasn’t a bird at all—it was a plump green frog. The little amphibian looked perfectly at home, its bright eyes blinking calmly as though it had every right to be there.

Anaya couldn’t help but laugh. “You’re not the homeowner here,” she said softly, amused at this unexpected squatter. Instead of leaves or moss, the frog had chosen a bird’s abandoned nest as the perfect resting spot.

For a moment, it was easy to imagine the frog thinking, Why build a house when someone’s already made one for you?

Anaya fetched her camera, snapping a photo to remember the curious sight. What started as a surprise turned into delight—a reminder that nature never fails to find new ways to surprise us, even in our own backyard.
