I have once again been blog-absent for a long time...It has been a busy little while, and late winter is definitely my least favourite time for photography. But I'm back now, and the photography (and blogging) season is on the way!
First some good news - I had a photo published in the spring issue of ON Nature Magazine! Check out the Spring Peeper on page 11, and be sure to read the article (James is an awesome guy and great herper).
This article got me thinking about spring, as amphibian breeding will be starting up in the next couple of weeks. This is often my first pursuit of the year, and I'm excited to head out after dark for a wade around in the swamp! Keep a keen ear for those peeping Spring Peepers, croaking Northern Leopard Frogs and quacking Wood Frogs, and head down to the local pond or ditch to check them out (watch where you step!). If you're feeling sciencey, be sure to participate in the Backyard Frog Survey like James suggests!
In the meantime, here are some photos to tide you over and get you excited for spring!
Spring Peeper (Pseudacris crucifer)
Northern Leopard Frog (Lithobates pipiens)
Wood Frog (Lithobates sylvaticus)
Grey Treefrog (Hyla versicolor)
Blatant re-use of old photos because I have no new material? Yes please!
Think frogs!
