The fewer frogs the heron can see, the more of them will remain in the pond ;)

Nice! The frog choruses are pretty deafening in the evening here at this time of year.

They sing so loudly that the guide who conducts tours of the winery has to shout over them.

I think it must be too cold for them in this area because despite living by a lake I have never seen any here!

Some species of frogs are able to live even in Alaska. I think they just haven't gotten to you yet ;)

That's true, I'd even seen a nature doc where they were shown. But yes, I don't think any of their kind are around here.

You actually caught a frog on a lily pad. That is so awesome. :D

The frog waited patiently while I changed the lens and got closer to it.

That was fortunate. They're usually skittish little things. *ploonk* and they're gone.

Apparently, these frogs are already used to the abundance of visitors.

I've never seen that before. Even at nature centers, they tend to announce their presence by jumping into the water.

There they announced their presence with loud croaking, shouting over the tour guide.
