Field Notes

Description:

Closely resemble the green frog but lack dorsal ridges.

Habitat:

Across North America, living in ponds, lakes, swamps and often resting at the water's edge

Notes:

Seen at the Mason Farm Nature Preserve. We had a very heavy rain last night and the creek was very swollen. The frog in the second photo did not survive for some reason.
