Photo Friday: Get Hopping : Black Tortoise Press

My water garden has a pretty strong eco-system. Each year we get frogs and tadpoles. Loved-One and the grand-kids (me too) feed the frogs worms until they are happy to climb into our hands and visit nose-to-nose.

This spring I got some shots of tadpoles on their way to frog-dom. Look at those tiny legs! I can’t help but think the little fellow is saying, “What are these new buds for? I have such a strong tail. I can swim like a fish. Why in the world do I need these silly little legs?”

Your gonna need those legs soon enough, my friend. Get hopping.

No frogs or tadpoles were harmed in this photo-essay.
