My frog is cool. I get a kick out of him especially in the spring when he sings for about a month. I'm still surprised that any young froglets find their way in to my back yard - and then they don't even stay. I just don't get it lol.
About a week or two ago my patio had several small frogs that looked just like my big guy :D

If I'm not mistaken, the big frog is the female and the little frog is the male. Kinda remember that from biology.
So if 'she' was singing and you had several boy visitors ... you might be rewarded with tadpoles!
And the bonus is all the bugs they eat!!

I just read up on my guy. I don't know why it has taken me so long to do it - but he's a bullfrog and male all the way :)
The way to tell American Bullfrogs apart is the male has bigger ear circles and the female's ear circles are the same size or smaller than their eyes. Their coloration is different too - the female has a white throat.
I have no idea why it took me so many years to look up info about my guy. Better late than never.
