AndyS posted two splendid North Texas frog photos yesterday. I thought Pennsylvania should be represented and looked for a profile shot of a bullfrog I took a few years ago. I couldn't find the frog but did find some shots of a pond I took in 2016. While they might not leap into view, there are some genuine Pennsylvania frogs in the photo.

1. I love photos of reflections! This is great and thank you, my dear Mousetoescamper! Nicely caught. ♥

2. I noticed that something didn't look quite right...

The photo was posted upside down! I rotated the image during editing which I sometimes do when cropping. I use a similar technique when proofreading my writing. I read from the end to the beginning. Helps pick up errors easily overlooked. The image is rightside up now.

Thanks and you're welcome, Peggy!

Thanks!

4. Looking for frogs... looking for frogs... trying to find the frogs...

🔎 Looking... 🔍

I see some things that might be frogs... or maybe not... Might it be be possible to give us some clues?

Lovely photo, regardless! Reminds me of Monet's water lily paintings.

one sudden step into deeper swamp, and your boot was full of stinky water. Thanks for the photo.

6. It's a beautiful picture

but I have to tell you my first thought was "what a jigsaw puzzle that would make!"

11. Thanks, cyclonefence!

It would be a challenging thousand-piece puzzle.

7. Beautiful reflection. Mousetoescamper!

I see some ripples that maybe are made by frogs? Well anyway I think the jewel tone colors are very striking. Nice capture!

Froggy clues coming up.
