The other night I caught a couple of frogs in and around the garden pond. With temperatures in the high twenties amd touching thirty who can blame them? 🙂

Do you know why frogs always sound so happy?
They always eat what bugs them. 😉

Wise frogs. I think most of us have felt like jumping in the nearest water over the last couple of weeks!

These are great images. Different angles and a good study on what they actually look like. Really nice.

Do they ever come indoors Pete? The OH is terrified of frogs and the thought of them coming into the house.

I have never had one in the house. Found a couple in the garage over the years, but that’s about it.

If they come in the house (and I’ve had many inside) just throw a dishcloth or towel over them and put them back out.

Thank you, Belinda 🙂 I have seen one or two during the day jumping in the pond, so they must be feeling the heat.
