Tree Frogs, Big and Small

October 14, 2020 Ellen Jennings 3 Comments

Tree Frogs seem to be hanging around everywhere this month, including reeds in the swamp.

This pair found a reed to their liking at the edge of the swamp for a nap.

Neither one showed any acknowledgement of my presence.

This is my first post created from scratch using the Block Editor. It seems tedious with a lot of extra steps compared to my usual process of adding a few images then typing a sentence or two in between.

More Creatures in the Green

I passed by a number of creatures moving about in the greenery on a recent walk. First a Carolina Anole balancing on a frond.

Then a grasshopper checking out a dried cattail reed.

And a Tree Frog, just hanging on.

More Tree Frogs

Surprising to me in these 90+ degree F days (32 C) we’ve been having the tree frogs are out in the sun.

Do frogs yawn?

Their camouflage is pretty good.

I Spy In The Green

… a Tree Frog and a Grasshopper, and a lot of green.

The Tree Frog appeared to spy me, too, but he didn’t much care about me or the grasshopper.

The grasshopper ignored us both, too.

This Tree Frog found a shady spot to nap, with the sun shining down into the bloom providing a nice back light for my image.

Two Mints In One

Mint colored frogs that is.

When I spotted two Tree Frogs nestled down in a white Calla Lily bloom a certain advertising slogan started in my head.

Nature’s Camoflage

October 23, 2019 Ellen Jennings 6 Comments

Spotting wildlife is often about subtle contrasts and shapes. The subject’s movement sometimes helps. This Sapsucker flew onto the tree then froze in place.

Looking for the unexpected can help.

Some creatures hardly move, like the Tree Frog, and others, like this warbler, are in perpetual motion so it’s helpful to anticipate their next direction.
