That would explain the bruised looking area. I thought it looked like it might not be natural.

This one looks like it has an injury. Usually the easiest way to ID a leopard frog in this area is by the white spot in the center of it's tympanum (eardrum.)

I think Leopard Frog too. Have a look at my spotting. http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/6406020

I like this shot...maybe a Leopard Frog? Just a wild guess. Welcome to Project Noah....I'm headed to my cabin in NC, so I look forward to your posts.
