Northern red-legged frog
Rana aurora
44.504, -124.022
Field Notes
Description:
Large coppery-colored frog with dark band across the eye. The sides are more red than the legs from what you can see when they are just sitting. This one was 5 or 6 inches long.
Habitat:
Coastal temperate rainforest, among the grass and the leaves they look just like.
Notes:
The last couple weeks or so they've been more noticeable hopping around; maybe 'froggy's gone a'courting". The long hot, dry summer this year is finally getting cooler and wetter, bringing them out.
