I wouldn’t have noticed this leopard frog if I hadn’t been looking in its general direction. Perhaps my footsteps startled him and he leapt for cover under the dandelion. These frogs are so well camouflaged that I wonder how many I may have overlooked so far this spring, this being my first sighting.

Lovely photos! I’m always worried about treading on our frogs… thankfully they don’t often go walking… er, hopping… on our lawn.

Beautiful markings on the frog and I love the way the dandelion adds interest. We often think of dandelions as just weeds and don’t pay them much attention, but this one in your photo looks downright majestic!

Thanks Anneli. I’ve always liked dandelions and this year they’ve been spectacular looking.

They’re actually quite pretty when they aren’t on the lawn.

It looked like the frog was seeking some shade under a miniature parasol. Thanks Ellen!
