Great photo's Bill!
A striking collection of greens, Whip! I especially like their beautiful gold-rimmed eyes. CanNOT understand why they didn't take the pizza lure -- broccoli would have been a nice match.
The spider shot is remarkable, but the guy in the painting gets my vote for "Best of Show." He's outstanding for his colors, warmth, and that ineffable froggish grin. I'd like to hang his portrait on my wall.
Thanks again!

Following in Guy's footsteps and visited Friendship bogs again this evening. This will probably be my final frogtography effort of the season. It was a muggy, mosquito filled evening. I found one very cooperative green frog and awaited some wonkers after sunset. I'll put these in two batches since there are quite a few. Thanks for looking.

which camera were these taken with?If the canon powershot it appears you learned how to use the macro.It's amazing what daylight can do.I hadn't realized how inferior a flash was to natural sunlight.

These were all taken with the Powershot, Alfie. I prefer the Rebel for flash photos, which was with me last night -- but my recharged battery was still in its charger, home & 1.5 hours away. I forgot it.
the only pb treefrog I ever found without hearing it call was in a hole in a dyke road at friendship bogs.Actually my step daughter found it while me,her mom and sister were walking around thebogs.She hollered Hey Al what is this and when i looked in the hole there was a PB staring up at me.Good Luck finding them when their silent.

Reflective water, and window, and eyes -- all so beautiful!
The green frog looks pensive here, and the pbtf seems to be holding on for dear life . . . I wonder whether they wonder about us too, and come to equally mistaken conclusions! LOL
Nice to see the blooms on your lovely birch-bark composition; they were pink buds in the report from May 18.
Thanks, Whip!

Thanks, Bob. Evening light. That's when all the green-frog photos were taken as well, then the pine barrens tree frog after dark.
Going to visit Belleplain this evening in hopes of finding more pbtfs. They were out in full force on Monday evening at Friendship, but the cooler temps now along with Guy's not hearing any action at the same location last night has me wondering if I'll have any luck.
Great photos as usual!
I forgot to tell you but the long skinny bog half way between quaker bridge and penn swamp be kickin! took the new bomb out there a couple nights ago and the PB's blew my ear drums out.can hear em from the road loud as can be.
