A few wee Gray Treefrogs

Some beautiful shots there. Common as muck they may be, but I'd never get tired of GTFs if I lived in Canada!

BTW, is the small one still around?

As do I. We find so many in the gardens and lawn this time of year and I wish I had time to photograph all of them. Here's a tiny one spending the day on an Actaea from about a month ago:

Thanks! I never stop appreciated them.

I think it's been maybe 5 days since the big one stopped showing up and maybe 4 days since the little one stopped showing up. We've had some cold nights (dipped to 0C one night). Cold temperatures always seem to disrupt their schedule and prompts them to seek out a suitable winter hibernaculum. It's supposed to be warmer this week (night time lows of 7C and higher) so they may resume activity.

Wow Brian, last couple nights been dipping here into the 50'sF and here you are already at 0C... brrrr !

The best of Autumn- frost or heavy dew in the morning for a little photography, work outside all day in the sun to build up a decent sweat, then a freezing cold swim in the pond to cool off, then lie on the dock in the toasty sun to warm up again.

My idea of fun is not a freezing cold swim ! Had to swim a mile in the Potomac every Friday through a whole Winter (among ice blocks) and even wearing a wet suit, did not like it one bit !

I hate when I see the familiar forms of little frogs or toads hopping across the road while I'm driving.

If I ever get a yard, I will let it go wild. maybe plant some nice weeds, not thorns, and put in a pond or two
to attract wildlife.
