Taken at the Bronx zoo,
It is since 1980, more than 120 species of amphibians gone extinct! The entire populations of amphibians are dramatically getting wiped out. A devastating fungus is reportedly responsible for this precarious position the amphibians have reached.
Its that time of year again, when frogs emerge and start doing their stuff! Note in this photo I have caught it in mid-croak with its throat fully distended.
This is Todd the toad. He now lives on our patio full time. He is getting his own apartment to hide in during the day. He has been keeping the bugs at bay during the night. lol
Last of my Seaplanes (Amphibians) from Oshkosh. It was really cool seeing these planes that we don't see around here.

Bufo bufo belongs to the most common amphibians and are widespread throughout Europe. Males have a length of up to 9 cm, females of up to 12 cm. It is mainly found in woodland and wet locations. When the breeding season starts large numbers of them can be found in ponds and small lakes near forested areas.
I captured this behaviour last year but it was so far away, I had to crop my image a lot. I was looking for another opportunity this summer.
I first saw this guy further away in the pond (image already posted). I waited for it to come closer but it just disappeared after waiting quite a long time. I decided to walk around and when I came back I could hear it at a very closed range. It was in the middle of the reeds right by the shore and fortunately managed to have a very small window. So I waited for it to sing again. That was another hour and a half until it jumped to catch this baby frog. This image was cropped on the right inside because of the reeds as it moved almost in front of it. I waited another hour or so for it to sing again so I could capture the vibration at a closer range (image to come).

C-GJUE, a Cessna TU206G Turbo Stationair 6 II, departing runway 33 at Toronto Buttonville Municipal Airport in Markham, Ontario. It was heading to Oshawa, Ontario.
This Bullfrog was so black that from far away I thought it was a turtle. Quite out of the ordinary colour. It was the first time I've seen one like this.
I think they are female / male thou some are different colours went back today all have been eaten some dispersed elsewhere probably
