Back to the Marsh

Strangely, there are few turtles this year.

Even stranger, there have been NO frogs that I have seen. The former frog pond is now empty of both turtles and frogs.

How curious; especially considering that it is now one year after I shot this http://www.pbase.com/britestar/creatures_from_the_blue_lagoon mini gallery.

Could there be a connection?

Great shot!
Your gallery from last year almost makes me want to give up diving, almost.

Great shot. There is general concern about frog populations. We have certainly noticed ours have varied in recent years.

very nice image Liz, with such nice light...but very sad about the missing frogs and turtles AND your images from last year...the swamp creatures? scary coincidence; but, maybe not a coincidence at all.

Oh what a great shot...concerning when these guys & frogs disappear.

Beautiful capture though Liz! V
