It’s been a good year for frogs at the lake. When birds and insects were in short supply, there were plenty of frogs to photograph. One spot in particular is dotted with tiny frogs, most submerged up to their necks. There is something very appealing about frogs and best of all most times they’ll sit still for a portrait!

  1. I always enjoy when there are photos of the smaller things in our world and in such a way as to highlight the beauty in them, whether they be “merely insects or frogs” – certainly NOT an opinion I share, because I, too, gravitate towards those often overlooked things. And you have done a marvellous job with your photos of capturing that essence of those little creatures in our world. 🙂

  3. Perhaps one of the reasons that insects seemed to be in short supply was that the frogs were there aplenty. Looks like it’s been a bountiful time for the frogs, but a very trying and tenuous one for the insects!

    • One summer we watched as a frog caught dragonflies as they flew low over the water! We saw none of that this year. I think they’re finding insects we just don’t see. All insect numbers are down, except the bees who seem to be thriving.
