Whilst gardening on sunday we found this frog in the back garden much to the joy of our daughter. I carefully lifted him into the lid of Izzy's sandbox and added some water for the poor fella to enjoy. Happy to say he is safe and somewhere in our long grass (along with atleast 12 other frogs / toads we've found to date).
It rained off and on all day. I'm sick as a frog, errrrr, I mean dog, lol. Touch of the flu. You can only take so much asprin and vitamin C and laying around, and then you have to find other ways to take your mind off it. Set this one up in my kitchen, and rather pleased with how it came out, if I do say so myself. Now, if I just had a shot of Jack to put in that glass..:)
The live animal exhibit “Frogs: A Chorus of Colors”, which was being held when I visited the American Museum of Natural History, had more than twenty frog species from around the world, from the tiny dart poison frog to some really large species.
This 3-inch White-lipped Tree Frog (Boophis Albilabris) lives in the trees of the rain forest in Eastern Madagascar. Males develop dark, callus-like bumps on the head, chest and forelimbs during mating season, said the museum notes.
It is threatened by habitat loss.

This is posted to show the scale of the frog in the prior frog photo titled Ribbit, Ribbit. The story of the frogs can also be found there .
This bullfrog jumped away from the pond shore to escape being caught by the red-headed hunter (dog). He floated back up to the surface but didn't stay above water long.

This one hasn't found a partner yet and was croaking to advertise himself... Of course our frogs don't actually say "ribbit", only the Hollywood frog does that, (the Pacific treefrog (Hyla regilla)), ours just make a loud croak :o)
This is the last in my frog mini series ;)

Common Moor Frog. The moor frog’s scientific name, Rana arvalis means “frog of the fields”. It is also called the Altai brown frog because frogs from the Altai Mountains in Asia have been included in the R. arvalis species. The Altai frogs have some different characteristics such as shorter shins, but currently there is no official distinction and all frogs are placed under Rana arvalis.
