And this green creature is beautiful to our grandson, Jared. He and Pop-Pop caught tadpoles this spring and put them into our little pond.
This little guy is the only one to survive.
This little guy is the only one to survive.
Do you remember this rhyme?
Over in the meadow,
In the sand in the sun
Lived an old mother toadie
And her little toadie one
“Wink!” said the mother;
“I wink!” said the one,
So they winked and they blinked
In the sand in the sun
I liked this photo of bubbles created by the tiny pond fountain. Notice the little orange at the top/center… they are the goldfish getting bigger and bigger.
Your little guy looks to be thriving. And he is sooooo green!
Cool frog! I love hearing them at night! Keep your flag-a-wavin'…Joan
Frogs are always so much fun to watch in our ponds but you're right in that they wander or visiting wildlife find them tasty.
Thanks for sharing your cute fellow.
Oh how cute ! We used to have 4 frogs, they lived in one of our ponds. They used to be so much fun to watch.But they used to come out of the pond and wander around ,which probably led to their demise…sigh
Oh well …..,
Enjoy your weekend ~
A wonderful post, it brought back many memories of my boys when they were young and reading that very quote. Thank you for reminding me and have a wonderful weekend.
I don't see many frogs here, though they are around. My friends had pet ones.
He may not be the most handsome guy I've ever seen but he sure is a beautiful shade of green. Great photos and the one of the bubbles is really cool.
The colors are wonderful ~ I never saw such a beautiful photo of a frog!
I'm so glad for Jared (that one of the tadpoles made it)!
The bubbles photo is neat ~ your photos are always so sharp and vivd!
Wonderful photos and I love the poem. Debbie
Great pictures! I loved your post! Thanks for sharing!
Very sweet photos! The greens in the pictures are very striking. We must find the beauty in all of God's creations 🙂

Great pictures. Could he be a prince? Only one way to find out…..

If I so him in reality, I would freak out. But he looks so cute in the picture, really cute.
I like this frog too!
As a home school momma I have found myself liking all kinds of creatures I never imagined I would ever get close to. One son used to carry snakes in his pocket. I never did get used to that, nor did I encourage it!
Have a Happy Day!

I'm with Jared ~ I think he is quite handsome ~ for a frog! Just look how nicely he is posing for you! He must be so happy to live in your pond.
Great Outdoor Wednesday post!
Blessings!
Love this guy and your photos do him quite a lot of justice. They are clear and beautiful. I like the bubbles too; they make for an interesting texture on the surface of the water.
We don't have a pond, but have a frog that lives in a hole under our front sidewalk!!! I think they're cute, too…and I love to hear the tree frogs croaking at night!!! Beautiful pics, as always!!! Thanks for your comment about the tunnel…they ALWAYS remind me of my Dad!!!
How cute! I love frogs 🙂
Those guys have such fabulous colors. We had a frog family when we had our pond. They were hilarious and fun. So glad to see you enjoying yours. Jane F.
What a great picture and I actually thought that the frog looked quite cute! But then I love frogs!
Lorraine, You are the only one I know who could make a toad photo so very lovely! I know Jared and Pop Pop are glad this little fella made it! Very cute indeed.
