mommy can't see me. Like cats, frogs think if they can't see yoy---you can't see them. This one has just a hint of a tail left. It reminds me of the bat signal

For the first time in 6 years no frogs deposted frog eggs in our bowl. Not to be dissuaded my grand daughter and I rescued about 75 from a drainage ditch nearby that dried up 3 days later. Its been a couple of weeks and they are thriving. Will see how they do. @gardening

My grandkids named Heart. I had no idea this would be a forever commitment. I end up tending the tadpoles for months. You can tell Hearts progeny. Often have similar markings.

about 5 years ago we rescued sone Pacific Choral Tree frogs from a nearby ditch before it dried up and since then they and their progeny have courted, mated & left their spawn in our 18" bowl. I heard them calling & found 3 in the bowl. 2 in an 'embrace' Heart is the male atop Big Mama. The 3rd was not identified. Stay tuned to watch the progress. Look close at the first to see all 3. Ingle frog hard to see.

for the past 5 years we have Pacific Tree forgs courting, mating and leaving their spawn in our 18" bowl. They are the descendants of tadpoles rescued from a nearby ditch. I heard their singing. Imagine my surprise to see 3 frogs in the bowl. Looks like Heart atop Big Mama. Folliw along as you watch eggs, spawn tadpoles and hopefully a few frogs make it to maturity. Cycle of life.
