Description
A small frog suns himself in a nearby pond.

Note: Frogs (and all other amphibians) are in trouble! Here's an excerpt from an article in eNature:

"It's been more than a decade since herpetologists in the United States, Australia, and Central America first noted the localized extinction of frog, toad, and salamander species and an abnormally high level of genetic deformities in certain amphibian groups. Since then causes have been sought, conferences held, and conclusions proposed, but the situation seems only to be worsening. In fact, amphibian extinction and rapid population declines have been observed even in relatively pristine wilderness areas like Yosemite National Park, where seven frog species are in steep decline and three have disappeared completely."
