Couple more pictures - just went out this morning and there they were!
We've seen the frog at a distance, but its the first time he stayed still when he saw me and let me get the picture.
Usually he jumps in the pond as soon as we appear. I think he's from the tads we added in late May.
There are snakes in the 'hood that eat mice (good) but also eat the frogs too (bad!) ...
There are a couple chipmunk families in the neighborhood - I opened the front door yesterday to go to the farmers market, with just a glass storm door in place. A moment later he popped up on the front porch and looked across the yard ... don't think he realized we were right there, but, alas, no camera yesterday. But today I saw him running along the board fence - and he froze and let me get some pictures. Used to be just the chain link between the yards, but a previous neighbor put up the privacy fence about 5 years ago ... perhaps our yard is wilder than she liked?
