What is This?

What is This?





Okay look for the eyes. Is that enough of a hint?






This is a wood frog that hopped through while we were weeding our corn beds. I actually had a problem in the first picture locating him in the screen of my camera. We look upon this frog as an indication that we are creating an hospitable environment at Riel House. No chemicals, lots of habitat (leaf litter in this case) and sufficient food - probably worms and insects. And yes, from our weeding, we are seeing lots of worms in the soils at Riel House.

You can read more about our visitor in this Wikipedia link regarding wood frogs.
