๐ธ Bullfrogs in the Wild! - Nature on Steemit - (Original Photos, Blog)
A day hanging out with some Frogs...
๐ธ Frogs are such amazining creatures! ๐ธ
Check this guy out!
I have always loved frogs... Ever since I was a small boy, I used to scan the shores of the lakes I would visit looking for the two buggy eyes peering out of the water at me....
Do you SEE the Frog?
Look a little closer....
๐ธ These Bullfrogs are plentiful at the lakes I visit.... ๐ธ
At night, they begin to call out to each other... It's cool to listen to them croaking off in the distance, and then hear one close by answer back!
Thankfully, these few little frog buddies didn't mind being nature models for me for a bit.
I did startle one though... or maybe he was just camera shy?
Check out these other cool photos I was able to capture of them!
Their habitat is a swampy little side area of the lake... lots of plants and Lilly pads to lounge on for the frogs...
Do you see both frogs in the picture?

Great Post , It is the frogs that eat a lot of insects, which helps a lot in controlling them. To get an idea of how many flies and mosquitoes they get rid of, by the day, an adult toad ingests what corresponds to about 3 cups full of these insects.
They do not find many problems to reach these undesirable insects, because some species of frogs can jump up to 20 times higher than the size itself.
๐ธ Those are all great facts! Thanks for adding those and for viewing! Feel free to resteem!
Welcome dear

love the close up shots!
Yes me too! I was impressed that they let me get in so close to them. The top one is zoomed in a bit, but I did get really close them most of the time. I love watching them just sit and chill.. they will sit there for hours sometimes in the same spot. Thanks for viewing @jznsamuel!
