Frogs are amphibians that are known for their jumping abilities, croaking sounds, bulging eyes and slimy skin. They live all over the world and are among the most diverse animals in the world, with more than 6,000 species.
I guess I’m on a wildlife tear again, I love connecting to nature.
It was back in 1968, that the Wells Mills Frog Farm first saw the light of day. Even the locals were unaware of the giant 10-, 20-pound, and even larger, frogs that were being dredged up at night, from a secret Wells Mills Road lake, for shipment the following morning to the Fulton Fish Market in New York City. The record catch was a 27-pounder affectionately named Tom, who was kept as a pet, but on a chain.
At this point, for the benefit of you skeptics who may be thinking, “Sounds like another one of those Baron Munchausen tales that those Pineys are always making up,” well, perhaps you’re right – at least in regards to this particular tale.

Great pictures Lou. Right on!
Thank you Rio, hope you are doing well. Sending peace and positive energy!
Nice shot!
Thank you for the visit much appreciated
Great photography. I love all your photos but am most fond of the back of the frog in the last one. It is amazing to me how the tiny green frogs with webbed feet to the bullfrogs in the south make the most amazingly loud and entertaining noises. I also love the beautifully photographed dragonflies. Hugs and love to you and yours Joni ❤️
