a village...in the pines
I must admit that for all of the wildly, unusual, random, and remarkably beautiful things that I have witnessed in my PB travels, I have not seen a PB tree frog....I've heard them, but not seen them. Anyhow-on a botany trip yesterday whilst searching for plant material someone shouts out "baby frog"....and lookie what we have here. Smaller than my finger nail.... and then a peeper, smaller than a pea....

And then oooooops!, back to flora for a two-budded pogonia and a glorious savannah....

Sigh, Terry

Congrats on finding your first PB tree frog! My son and I have been down 4+ times since April and we have come up empty. We haven't even heard their call...maybe the dry weather had something to do with it.
Last summer the ranger at Bass River told us that after a rain, the men's and ladies' restrooms at Lake Absegami are sometimes crawling with the little amphibians.
