Occasionally, I like to sit down with the Nature program. Then evening it was about frogs. I really know nothing about frogs.
I was totally amazed that a frog could freeze solid in the winter and thaw in the spring to live another season. I had no clue that was even possible. (My husband said everyone knows that.) I did not.
*These frogs live in the northern most parts of North America
*This frog eats insects, algae, worms, , amphibious eggs, molluscs and larvae. Yumm!
*Wood frogs grow to lengths of around 1.4 to 3 inches.
*They will protect themselves with camouflage coloring.
*Wood frogs make a high shrill noise that makes some preditors avoid them.
The show that I watched actually showed a picture of them freezing and then thawing. If you have never seen I would look it up on the Nature program. You can watch it online.

Poor little guy looks like a toad. He might not get kissed.
I knew about the freezing but I had originally planned to study herpetology in college.
I knew about frogs that they freeze in winter and come back in spring. Very interesting.
This information is interesting and amazing.

I didn’t know that frogs can freeze and still survive. I do like frogs, they are lovely little creatures.
