This is my favorite picture of my backyard garden pond.  My pond is full of frogs and goldfish.  It is a very peaceful and relaxing place.  The sounds of the waterfall and frogs is so wonderful. Hope you enjoy this card!

Frogs - Commonn Coqui, El Yunque, Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico
El Yunque National Forest

The common coqui is a tiny frog native to Puerto Rico that gets its name from a repetitious and unique calling sound (Ko-kee) made by the male of the species from dusk until dawn.  A nocturnal predator, these amphibians have padded discs at the end of webless toes allowing them to climb branches and leaves with ease.

The sender writes:

We actually got to see one of these - a baby one.  They sing a pretty sound.  We heard them during our hike.

One Froggy Evening is an approximately seven-minute long Technicolor animated short film written by Michael Maltese and directed by Chuck Jones, with musical direction by Milt Franklyn. The short marks the debut of Michigan J. Frog. This popular short contained a wide variety of musical entertainment, with songs ranging from "Hello! Ma Baby" and "I'm Just Wild About Harry", two Tin Pan Alley classics, to "Largo al Factotum", Figaro's aria from the opera Il Barbiere di Siviglia. The short was released on December 31, 1955 as part of Warner Brothers' Merrie Melodies series of cartoons.

Steven Spielberg, in the PBS Chuck Jones biography Extremes & Inbetweens: A Life In Animation, called One Froggy Evening "the Citizen Kane of animated film." (Looney Tunes Golden Collection, Volume 5, Disc 2) In 1994 it was voted # 5 of the 50 Greatest Cartoons of all time by members of the animation field. In 2003 the United States Library of Congress deemed the film "culturally significant" and selected it for preservation in the National Film Registry.

Tree Frogs in Australia

The Red-eyed Tree-frog is one of Australia's most colourful frogs.  It is rarely seen as it lives high in the canopy of eastern coastal wet forests, but after rain hundreds of males come to the ground and call to females to breed.

3-D Frogs

I bought this 3-D postcard in Downtown Disney.
The picture is of a frog jumping on a chair, and when he gets on it, he has a crown on his head.

this postcard doesn't have a very good 3-D effect.

the back of the card only reads:
(...die mit den etwas anderen karten!)
translation - (... with a slightly different card!)
