The first time we saw this little guy was a few days ago. He was sitting right on top of our doorbell button. Yep, that tiny little guy was no bigger than my thumbnail. My son asked, “What’s that?” as we walked up to our door. I answered, “A frog” and he jumped back. I assured him that there was no need to be scared of him. We did not touch him or anything like that. The kids took turns looking, I snapped a quick picture with my cell phone and left him alone.
The next day we figured he was gone but then noticed that he was sitting on one of the flower pots on the porch. Again, I took a quick picture with my cell phone and left him alone again. I knew he would leave soon so having these quick pictures was so my kids could have something to look at again as well as show their dad.
He then disappeared for a day and we then thought he was gone for good. Well, good thing we took, some pictures. I watered my plants and we went on with our day. This morning we heard the FedEx guy drop off a box. I opened up the door and saw our little friend sitting there on a leaf looking out towards the street. I immediately said, “Guard Frog”. The way he was sitting he just looked like he was keeping a look out. You know, just keeping his eyes on the street, looking for anything suspicious. Or maybe he was scoping the place out for food.
I decided to get my camera out and take a few pictures of him. Something I could print out for my kids. They have small 4×6 albums for their memories. I figured my daughter would like these for her album, so I took a few. Different angles and a few as close as I could get without scaring him.
Anyone else have little frogs in their yards?
