Went to Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge early yesterday and managed to have a bit of quiet time before the crowds arrived. While standing on the boardwalk leading to the Twin Barns and trying to get a look at some elusive warblers, I noticed a Pacific Treefrog (aka Pacific Chorus Frog) climbing a blade of grass. I started looking around and soon realized that these little frogs were everywhere. Almost all were less than an inch long and I saw a few that would have easily fit on the nail of my little finger. The variety of markings and colors on these little gems never ceases to amaze me.

Barry, what a great surprise . Beautiful , beautiful gallery of work.
Thank you for the tree frogs. At the old house, I missed them so much when the golf course /pesticides eliminated their singing presence. I am glad to know they have a residence without that element.

Love these amazing little frogs--so wonderful to have these glimpses I most likely wouldn't even notice in the wild!!

Barry - there is something about your work that brings tears. I am so moved by creation, you're ability to reflect it back to me.
