Garden surprise

Usually the garden is full of wonderful surprises.  The first spring flower in bloom.  A snail for a little kid to find.  Showing up in August to find several ripe tomatoes, ready to be picked.  Some surprises, though, are a bit more startling.  Like this little guy--a petrified rat we found when we moved the garden shed a couple months ago.  He was perfectly preserved underneath the shed.  Kinda cute. Kinda not.  Surprise.
