Bullfrogs at work


This is one of the many resident bullfrogs at the DragonFly garden.

These frogs are nocturnal critters, and great bug eaters. I took these pictures early in the morning while it was heading back to her day resting place.

What fun to see some froggies on your blog, Rusty. Is there a pond nearby where they live?

I just found your blog while 'browsing' and wanted to say hi. While I'm here, the frogs are quite cute, actually! How large did you say they were? They look huge in the photos! Jan

Just wanted to inform you your 'bullfrogs' are not actually bullfrogs. What you have here is an invasive species known as the marine toad (also goes by cane or giant toad). Still great for eating insect pests! Don't handle them though, they excrete a nasty toxin when disturbed.
