This is the frog you want to have in a frog jumping contest!
Leopard Frogs have always been one of my favorite frogs, but they can be hard to come by. First off, with their brown or green base color and the spots all over them, they can blend in and hide very easily. Also, since they will often see you long before you ever see them, they can jump out of the way before you ever know that they are there.
Since these sleek and powerful frogs can jump over three feet at a time, and since they can repeat that over and over again, they can cover a great distance very quickly. I did not get as much time with this one as I wish I would have, but I did get a few shots. This one happened to be a brown one. I’ll see if I can find a green one soon.
Watch out for that last one!
