Little Frog (With Black Stripes Over Eyes)


I found this frog under a brush pile when I was out playing in the rain. Does anyone know if this is a tree frog? It's very small and fast, with a black stripe crossing over both eyes and a white line at the lips. It's legs are striped but it's body really is not (it's vaguely spotted).

Totally cute.

Do Tadpoles Get THIS BiG?!

um, what the hec? I have tadpoles in my pond that are bigger then most frogs!?!! This big honkin' tadpole pictured above is at least 4-5 inches long, and let's just say it's head is huge/wide. And I have seen others like this so big I thought they were funny tailed fish.

See in the picture below, there are some grown normal sized tadpoles in the upper right hand corner, and in the lower left hand corner the dark shadow making a ripple in the water is the giant tadpole! That big one could eat the others for a lite snack!!!
Have ya'll ever seen or heard of these ginormous tadpoles?

Brown Striped Eye Frog & Co.

**********
I have a surprise for ya! It's super cute...YAY! A tiny tree frog that I have never seen before, and it is really amazing. Brown stripes over it's eyes, and striped back legs... plus...
Polka dots and adorned with froggy jewels.
The frog was getting so much super star quality attention that a nearby toad leaned in for a hot shot of his sassy self! Aren't his spots and bumps handsome?
I am pretty sure they were all on the trail of the little snail!

Toad, Prince In The Making

Well, Hello. (Clears throat...) My name is Cornilius Boobabum and if you kiss me I will not only be a prince, but in my regal human form I will continue to make this smug ass expression throughout our life together. Pick ME!
LOL. This toad really is almost cute enough to smooch if ya look at him in just the right state of mind, I mean check out those cool patterns, colors and camouflage markings. Not to mention the adorable way he holds his hands together (is that two thumbs down)... & nice frog legs.BTW- that's a boy holding the toad, not me. I am not that flat.

Da' Tiniest Toad Eva' !!!

Oh My Gawd! I have never in my life seen a froggy this small... ever! It's so micro sized that it makes my eyes water to even look at how flippin' cute it is. At first sight I thought I was looking at a baby cricket jumping under the rocks I was lifting, then I realized it was a jet black baby toad (or frog... or whatever amphibian it may be?) Possibly a decedent to the huge plump toad I found in that area a few days ago.
Just as a note to it's size- my hand it also super small, probably 1/3 to 1/2 the length of whatevs' your hand is. This little hopper was smaller then my pinky fingernail!xoxo
