EUREKA! ONE LONE LEOPARD FROG FOUND JULY 8, 2018

EUJREKA!  ONE LONE LEOPARD  FROG!   JLY  8, 2018,

(farm pond, fifth line, erin twp. wellington county)
VERY hot today.  Should be a good day  for frogs to get out of the farm pond
and  limber up there tongues  for fly catching.  That would assume  there are
any frogs left in our 9 acres  of ponds.  There were none visible last week
although there was thing of pollywog movement beneath the floating corpses
of last years bull rushes.
Not much sign of life as I circled  the pond, and  then there it was  … a quite
mature leopard front.  Not moving.  Watching  me with a single bulbous
eyes.  But alive and  healthy.
I hope he or she is not spotted  by the eagle eyes of blue heron whose stiletto beak spears frogs and fish  and anything that moves.

Today was  one of those magnificent days  of  summer…maybe you would not mind  me sharing my “frog” happy day.   Farm ponds and
wild flowers are the backdrops to our  friend the frog.
TEST QUJESTION:
WHICH  FLOWER IS  OUT OF PLACE…SHOULD BE LOCATED IN A TROPICAL CLIMATE?  WE KEEP IT BARELY ALIVE ALL WINTER JUST
TO SEE THESE BLOSSOMS.
