Stopped by one of my favorite vernals today to see how it was faring. Things were looking pretty dry. This poor green frog was trying to stay cool under some lilies.
As I looked around on a small hill behind the vernals I heard a rustling in some weeds. Creeping up slowly I was surprised to find this, a two for one special.
A spotted and a boxie fighting for the same shade.
The spotted.
and the boxie.
Both were a little shy and I couldn't get them to come out for better shots. The boxie was a beast, I swear the thing weighed two pounds.
