3 species of frogs in one night!

3 species of frogs in one night!

July 9, 2024 Elizabeth

We had these 2 frogs in the egress. Sometimes they get stuck in here and can’t seem to figure out how to get out. One is a northern leopard frog and the other is I believe a pickerel frog. We get them out when we spot them here. Sometimes it’s harder than others. I’ve read that pickerel frogs are a species of special concern in Michigan. We’ve seen these here before.

We also spotted this green frog and an American toad.

After having seen the video – can you find the 2 frogs in this egress picture? Scroll to see the other side.

Here’s a few more zoomed in photos to see these guys a bit closer.
