I'm not sure whether that would be the appropriate song for this shot or whether it should be the theme from "Mission Impossible" :)
I had heard some croaking sounds coming from the pond, or perhaps if you were a frog it might have sounded like courting sounds. When I went to check it out, I found these two in a rather cozy position near the edge of the pond. I guess I'll know soon enough whether the courtship was successful if I find tadpoles swimming around. In the meantime we'll keep pets and small children away from the pond - that frog on the bottom looked big enough to be a danger to them. And the one on top, IMHO, has a face only a mother could love!

Cute, but it freaks me out! I get the goose bumps when I think of their skins.
Really great photo, Rick. I love this and I agree with you on the face and mom love. ha Adorable.
@S. Etole - LOL - yes, I could have left the post out.
@M - I agree - I look, but don't touch if I don't have to.
@POD - thank you. I think that one could win homely-frog-of-the-month! :)
What is your blog rated? lol PG?
@Julia - LOL! yes, make sure your parents are with you if you view this blog ;) (Hey - I was just out taking shots of nature)
That's your story and your stickin to it right Rick? lol Now if the frogs had a camera do you think that they would take photos of humans in such a position? I do, so this is all justified... it's all good. Cute photo!
About the best I've seen all day ... lovin' it, Rick <3
@darlin - yep! I was kinda like a photojournalist - saw a 'story' happening and I just captured it. The last thing these frogs were interested in today was a camera! LOL! Thanks :)
@joey - thanks joey. That pond was a happenin' place! :)
This is priceless! Great *action* shot. LOL!
Ha! I agree with Krista - great *action* shot!
@Krista & joey - LOL! Thank you.
@Lisa - thanks; glad you enjoyed it.
Oh poor little froggies! Where's the privacy these days?? How terrible to be caught in the act & then for it to be forever captured on film!!! Oh, I don't know Rick, I am surprised!!
No...seriously...this is great! Fantastic photography. Can you recall the polar bears I put on my blog... I have some rather tell tale photos of those 2 as well..but wasn't sure about posting them. What do you think Rick? Should I?
@Katherine - thank you. 'Famous' froggies now - or maybe infamous :)
Yes I recall your frolicking polar bears; I think as long as you hide their identities you can post those 'action' shots :) LOL
