    So... here in northern New England, usually the first warm(ish) rainy night in early spring brings a huge migration (for lack of a better word) of amphibians from their wintering spots towards ponds, lakes and vernal pools. Thousands and thousands of frogs, salamanders, and similar creepie-crawlies are on the move, all at once, on a rainy evening. Last night was the night.

    Still, I was surprised to see this little rascal on our mudroom door when I was getting ready to go upstairs for the evening yesterday. :)

    They're kind of odd sounding -- perhaps related to loss of ferrofluid (?).

    That might be one of those frogs that licking their back
    causes a hallucenogenic effect.
    If you could verify that.....well .
    ...would advance science !

    If nothing else the Hardy household would become known as "Frog Friendly"

    .....which would be a good thing, I think May....be 🤔🐸😉

    I love how you can drag out a frog invasion. :D

    We get it so bad sometimes I have to get a 5 gallon bucket and collect them for relocation from my mud porch.

    You need to seriously brush up on your history because that is absolute BS.

    A few examples, the French under Napoleon won...a lot. They also won the Hundred Years War. In fact, history shows that France has won 1115 battles, more than any other country. France is also part of the reason the US beat the British to gain our independence.

    In 1940 during the evacuation of Dunkirk it was mainly the French army who slowed down (with 16,000 casualties) the advancing Germans that bought enough time to allow the Allied troops to be withdrawn.

    Nope, and (of course) not a Ferrari. Marcos maybe?

    I was thinking 275 GTB. (i.e., not 275 GTB). Thought the cab looked too high and narrow for a 250 GTO. Silly me. :#
