On Mine Field Pond

[Mirah]

If you can identify the frogs, maybe the green and brown frog are the same species but one is a prince and one is a princess and they both accidentally kissed the wrong frog.

Its so wierd-I swear they are changing colors! I'm not kissing any of them!

Tonight there is the same medium sized green frog
the larger brown frog
and now an even tinier green frog if that is even possible-or maybe he just looks tinier because he was up on the top of the window.

They are trying to drive you insane with frog-tricks.

It's part of the frog code.

Based on Mirah's vague descriptions of the mystery frogs, I am going to attempt to identify them.

green frog - pacific tree frog, if it has a stripe down the side from it's eye to the back legs
brown frog - northern red-legged frog, or Oregon spotted frog (even if you're not in Oregon)
tiny green frog - possibly a young tree frog

if you could describe their toes, I would know if they're frogs or toads

Don't bring the beaver state into this!

There is definitely a tree frog with cute toes.
I don't think any are toads, but I haven't seen the larger brown ones toes, so maybe it is. I have been attempting to upload pics now for 3 days and no luck.

I will try again tonight.

I took the long way around:
2 green tree frogs:
(Btw Cassie you are the best! Thank you!)

2 green tree frogs again.
(And yes my house needs painting.) (It is park housing. It was set to be painted last summer before we evacuated and apparently house painting isn't on the list of things to do now)

Dam if I do, dam if I dont.
