Field Notes

Description:

This frog hopped across a trail I like to hike in Rothrock State Forest, Centre county, PA. The trail loops around a bog, and there are many amphibians present. I'm not sure if this is a Pickerel or a Leopard frog. Any ideas??

Habitat:

Swampy, bog type area surrounded by a hemlock rhododendron forest
