This evening, I walked in my yard and something jumped on my pant leg. First, I thought, a toad must have mixed me up with a tree again. But by closer inspection I saw a Wood Frog in the grass. He sat there very quietly for me to capture a photo of him. But when I tried to catch him, he leaped right under the Hosta leaves and was out of sight. His name is Bubba, and he is a good tenant catching mosquitoes.
I need a Bubba, mosquitoes are bad here.

They seem bad everywhere this year. My bats, frogs, snakes, toads, etc… have so much work to eat them all. And the outer edges of lakes and ponds seem to be stagnant. That is a perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes. On top of that, we had a mild Winter in Connecticut, I was told.
