While playing in our backyard (i.e. playground) this year, we've spotted some friendly little frogs. At first it was a novelty, but now frog-rescue-and-release is just a part of our time outdoors. Even so, each one discovered brings new joy, wonder, and curiosity. We have been very careful and gentle with them. The person who catches the frog is the only person to hold it (because passing it around might harm/scare it). After taking a good look at it and documenting through a photo, we take it behind the fence to the prairie and creek where we release it. Our backyard frogs 1. Date: 9/3 Location: logs This was our first one. We released it to put it to its home so it could see its parents. 2. Date: 9/4 Location: stage steps That was a little cute one. 3.
