I have been hearing the sound of frogs for weeks, but I rarely catch a glimpse of one and was happy to spot this Southern Leopard frog (Lithobates sphenocephalus) on Monday.
I really like the view from the front, with the frog surrounded by little bubbles, his eyes reflecting in the water. The second view, however, lets you see better the positioning of his legs.
The frogs are active now and I even saw a pair of intertwined snakes. Spring is here in full force in Northern Viriginia.

It has gotten cold again here for the last two days, so still no frogs. I can’t wait to hear them again.
Great photos, Mike.
At least spring is SOMEWHERE! I love frogs- great shots.
