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.
