I apologize for not providing any pictures or updates as of late. I’ll try and take and post new pictures tomorrow. Despite the lack of pictures, I can give everyone a verbal update. The Purple Martin babies (the original 5) all seemed to have fledged now. There are probably 20 Martins flying around every night. …

Category Archives: Bullfrog Say hello to Michelle J. Frog, previously known as Michael J. Frog, now known as MJ Frog. Did you get all that? The confusion in naming was due to my lack of knowledge on how to distinguish male and female Bullfrogs. I think I understand how to tell the difference now. This one is definitely…  This makes the 4th year that the American Bullfrog, nicknamed Michael J. Frog, has made his appearance in our pool. That’s one of the nice things about Spring is you get to see if your old regulars return once again. Before I post the pictures, let me share some information that I just recently read…  We see him at night, but we haven’t seen Michael J. Frog (American Bullfrog) during the day in a long time. I suspect we will start seeing less and less of him as the weather turns cooler. This is the first shot I’ve been able to take of him with the 7D. I definitely think… I mentioned last night that we haven’t seen Michael J. Frog (Bullfrog) in quite a while. We finally did see him last night after we got a good rain. Ordinarily, Michael J. hides during the day, but today was different. He dove in the pool early this morning while I was out taking pictures. He… Well not really, but I realize I haven’t posted much this week. I’ve been getting home a little later than normal, then we’ve actually had some rain (yea!) a few nights as well. I’m going to try the early morning Saturday ritual and get some pictures. It’s supposed to be really hot and humid tomorrow…  Now this is a leg model. This American Bullfrog that we found in our pool has very long legs. You should see it jump! With a face only a mother could love, Michael J. Bullfrog was sitting on the moss rock when I got home. I would think he would have been a little warm sitting on those rocks while the sun was still out, but he didn’t seem to notice. Michael J. Frog made another appearance today. His appearance was a little early than we expected him (he normally doesn’t come out until after dark) but we spooked him while pulling some weeds. I still can’t get over what strong leg power he has. Imagine trying to sit in the pool, without holding on to… Same Bullfrog, different night. We’ve decided to name him Michael J. Frog. I don’t know what he does during the day, but during the late evening hours he apparently loves to take a dip in the pool and then (I’m assuming) hunt for his dinner. Michael J. Frog with an “eye” tattoo on his arm… So I go to let the dogs out for their last bathroom break of the night. Suddenly I hear a big splash. I grab the flashlight and camera, and look who I see! It’s the Bullfrog taking a dip in the night.  This guy is huge! He’s been around for a couple of years now. Every time I try and take him over to the pond (where the other frogs like to hang out) he always comes back to the pool. He normally sits in the pool skimmer at night. Today we noticed him sitting in the… |
