Field Notes

Description:

Small frog that is highly variable in color and pattern. Most individuals have a triangle between the eyes and a stripe down the back. He decided to play dead in the last photo, had never seen one of these guys do that before so was pretty cool :)

Habitat:

Caught near a small pond in an oak forest.
