Picture of the Day for June 30, 2013

On a warm, lazy summer Sunday afternoon,  young children may play near a pond and maybe they might spot a green frog hiding in the cattails. Even if they don’t spot one, they might hear one croaking up a storm.

Green frogs will attempt to eat any mouth-sized animal they can capture, including insects, spiders, fish, crayfish, shrimp, other frogs, tadpoles, small snakes, birds, and snails.
