Frog Eyes
Most mornings this spring, as I welcomed the sun from the blind at Brick Pond I was serenaded by the deep, resonating "rooom-rooom-rooom" sound of bullfrogs as they signaled to their mates. More often heard than seen, a few times I had scanned the water in front of the blind but previously hadn't located the culprit. On this overcast Saturday morning I had been looking further out when I noted a suspicious bump in the water nearby. Using my lens to pull me closer I peered out to find an eye glancing back at me. Shortly after I found a second, hiding in the reeds. Bullfrogs have eyes situated on the tops of their heads, allowing them to remain inconspicuous under water as they watch out for threats.
