Gull yesterday, toad today!
"Where there are no swamps, there are no frogs."
~German Proverb~
"If we can discover the meaning in the trilling of a frog, perhaps we might understand why it is for us not merely noise but a song of poetry and emotion."
~Adrian Forsythe~
A group of frogs is called an "army".
You're going to grown at this one.
What kind of shoes does a frog wear?
Ready for it?
Open-toad sandals!
“Toad you!”
Ribbit!
Thanks for looking friends.
Have a great day!
Very enjoyable photos of the frogs and toad, Denise.
ReplyDeleteAppreciate that very much Margaret, thank you :)
DeleteI think my favorite is the German proverb. I love the last one with his eyes just above the water.
ReplyDeleteIt is a great quote Ginny :) Yes and he's a very handsome toad.
DeleteDefinitely groaning. It is way, way too long since I have seen or heard either a frog or a toad.
ReplyDeleteSmiling here :) It's been a while since I saw one but I haven't been to my favorite places for such sightings. A little bit late now. I will look forward to seeing them next year. Thanks Sue!
DeleteLOL, open toad sandals. That's a good one. I'm glad you toad us. Thanks for the first chuckles of the day.
ReplyDeleteYou are very welcome Ann. I love a good corny joke, sounds like you do too my friend, another kindred spirit :)
DeleteI like frogs, but they disappeared from our pond a few years ago, to my disappointment.
ReplyDeleteMe too and I hope they surprise you and you will find them back in your pond one day :) Thanks Janice!
DeleteHello Denise,
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun and cute post, I love all the frog photos and quotes.
Take care, have a great day.
Hello Eileen, and thank you, I am so glad you think so. You take care and have a great day also :)
DeleteThat frog is huge and daring
ReplyDeleteThey do grow pretty big :) Thanks Roentare!
DeleteI absolutely have to remember the one about the open-toad sandals and dispense the humour as though it were my own! Where do crows go for a drink? To the crowbar!
ReplyDeleteLOL! Thanks for that one David, you gave me a chuckle this morning.
DeleteCute! Toadaly cool. Linda in Kansas
ReplyDeleteLOL! I am going to have to remember that one too, thanks Linda :)
DeleteOf course, as our blog title suggests, we like frogs too, Denise, but I have never been very successful in finding any good photo subjects.
ReplyDeleteOne day I hope my friend :) They are really lovely to photograph.
DeleteSuch a cute post Denise! Very clever and informative as well. An army of frogs is a delight to hear isn't it? Learn something new every day. I must share this post with our son-in-law as he is enamored with frogs. Have a great day dear friend.
ReplyDeleteSo happy you think so Martha Ellen and thank you. I agree, it is delightful to hear them. I am always learning, it is such a fun part of life to learn something new. It's very nice to know your son-in-law thinks highly of them also. You have a great day too dear friend :)
DeleteThis was a fun post to read; great pics of the frogs.
ReplyDeleteWonderful! So glad you enjoyed it Linda, thank you :)
DeleteHO HO HO! you know I loved the puns and I do love frogs, and he is a fine frog. I also like the looks of the mud..
ReplyDeleteThank you Sandra, and happy you enjoyed. They always look quite at home in all that lovely mud, and to think people pay a lot of money for mud paths at a fancy spa :)
DeleteHaha! Thanks for my early morning chuckle, Denise!
ReplyDeleteYou are very welcome Ellen, and thank you :)
DeleteYou found some good groaners today.
ReplyDeleteThanks Red, I certainly did :)
DeleteThey are a lovely green
ReplyDeleteTotally agree, thanks Christine :)
DeleteC(roak) OL...he is a cute fella but I don't want an army of them they are loud
ReplyDeleteHugs Cecilia
Hi Cecilia, lol and yes,they do get pretty loud :)
DeleteLol! Love frogs and toads..
ReplyDeleteI am very fond of them also Rose :) Thank you!
DeleteA fun post and cute too :)
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Thank you Jan :) so glad. Thank you and all the best to you too :)
DeleteLindo sapo. Te mando un beso.
ReplyDeleteMuito obrigado. Fico feliz que você goste dos sapos :) Te mando um beijo.
DeleteThey are definitely loud, especially in the summer. We have many around our pond, but they don't much come up to visit us here at the house.
ReplyDeleteHow lovely you have a pond nearby :) These were taken at a wetland area several miles away.
DeleteFrogs are such fun to watch. I loved these photos!
ReplyDeleteHi Jeanie, they certainly are and thank you so much :)
DeleteI like frogs! The sandal joke however… groan!
ReplyDeleteI love them too Linda :) No worries on the groaner, there will be more to try out down the road I’m sure, lol!
DeleteSuch fun photos....and who knew a group was called an army? You have the best photos!!
ReplyDeleteHappy you enjoyed them Jennifer, thank you so much. I think the army of frogs has buried themselves deep in the mud until next spring :)
