15 Frogs!

For Ms. [livejournal.com profile] jan_u_wine, who wanted to see some frogs. 15 frogs for you, ma'am. I believe they are all bull frogs. Excepting the 1st pictured and the 9th, most of them are female because their tympanum (ear circles) are no bigger than their eyes. These were photoed from April to June around Greenbelt Lake. You'll have to wait until I clear some hard drive space before seeing the July froggies.
