The tadpoles are harder to find now and much more skittish. Still no friggin legs though...

But some people might remember the tiny toads I posted in the close ups thread last spring... Here are a few of this years crop. They are so cute.

And here's a tadpole hunter...

They are really cute, jinx.

Can you take some pics of the area where this magical pond is please?

jinx · 06-14-2007, 09:41 PM

I already did

.

We find the toads about a mile down the trail past this lake - the smaller of the 2 at the park here.

The tadpoles are over by the other lake. I"ll take pics of the area next time we're there.

I like the world reflected in your ring.

Since the tadpoles are getting tougher to photograph, maybe you should capture a couple and keep them in a fishbowl for backup. You can always let them go when they get their legs.

Great minds

When the kids figure that out on their own I'll probably help them, but I have a thing about animals in cages... I don't know, it just really bothers me.

The frogs were mating today. We're going back to a new spot tomorrow to try to get better pics and video. And because I forgot the polarizing filter...

That's disgusting, they're acting like, like people.

Awesome pictures, jinx! The polarizing filter makes a world of difference. The ones caught mid croak are my favorite. Nice work with the trigger finger!

The sound on the video adds so much more, too.
