For about the last couple days in October and first week in November 2003
this little frog greeted me morning and evening as I went to the barn to
feed my British White Cattle. First day I didn't think much about it but
as it became more persistent I decided to take a few pictures.

No I don't have a clue as to what kind
and can't say that I ever remember seeing one like it before. To give you
an idea as to it's size, it is sitting on one-half inch square tubing.
These pictures were taken on about four different days. Occasionally it
would be at a different height but always on the gate. Never jumped off
once when I opened the gate. Some days it was a little over four feet up.
A mighty small frog to be that high up and without wings. How does that
old saying go? "If a frog only had wings". Boy this one needed them.
It was
different colors or at least different shades of color at different times
and I don't know why.
Yesterday
my wife was raking leaves and discovered it or another one under the
leaves. She said it was same color as the leaves this time.
And what
does this have to do with British White Cattle? Who knows for sure but I
would never have become acquainted with this little frog had I not owned
British White Cattle. Maybe you should buy a few British Whites.
