I spent Sunday morning surrounded by dozens of small Pacific tree frogs and a few Red-legged frogs near a marsh. Just us, no one else around. The tree frogs were very small, about 2 cm (< 1 in.), and well hidden in the vegetation. I tapped the ground with my foot before each step to make sure that I was not stepping on them. A memorable experience.

@CatherineBabault@mastodon.social I have a small pond in the backyard and they have been hanging around there after emerging. Found a few in the vegetable garden which I relocate to a back corner so I am less likely to step on them. The ones resting on the pond plants will sit still long enough for a focus stack, fortunately. :)
