First frog of the season
I was sitting by the pond and heard a frog, had to go in
search. I found him in the cattails. I guess Spring has sprung in NJ. -- Bonnie NJ |

We've seen 5 very dark green Green frogs, 1 light green Bull or Green frog, and 1 Leopard frog. Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehaaaa! BV. |

Gosh Bonnie ... that is really a downer. I hope you've seen
the last of the ice. The little frog was your spring wake-up call - - I have two very dark brown small frogs that were wintering in the veggie filter. Haven't heard them sing at all.

So no food yet. They will have to make due with the algae on the sides of the pond. -- Bonnie NJ |

I've had 2 croaking frogs since mid-March, (early for us) but it just
rained the other night and oh boy, when it rains do the frogs come out. Sounds like the whole gang from last year is now in attendance, and they sing till 5am! WONDERFUL!!! ~ jan ~ jan (Do you know where your water quality is?) |

First frog of the season
I've seen my male bullfrog in my big pond for a few weeks. Today, I saw a young green frog. I fear I lost a lot of them again as no adults have come up yet. I've pulled out two poor dead pickerel frogs the last few months. But, as I write this, a wood frog is quacking in my buried tub pond out back. I think there are two males and one female wood frog visiting with the young green frog. Hopefully there will be eggs this year again. A fox killed my favorite hen and rooster I hatched myself Wednesday morning.
