Froggy Went a Courtin...

Earlier this month Emilie and I took a drive to a local ponds and released our bullfrog. I caught this boy is early August, so we had him for about a month and enjoyed having him around. However, with winter approaching we wanted to let him go with plenty of time to fatten up and locate a good hibernating spot.

Off we go, Shaquille O'Neal and I, through the woods and down the path to the pond -



And here's Mr. Froggy. He had something going on with his mouth area when I caught him that didn't really get much better under our watch. Perhaps, getting back into a pond and wallowing in mud will help it heal.



Just hope he's smart enough to steer clear of the Great Blue Heron we saw when we arrived.
