This Green Frog, photographed by Robert, doesn't look very green. But the large tympanum (that circle behind its eye that acts as an eardrum) makes it easy to identify. It was enjoying the sunshine in our Backyard Garden along with four others.

Green frogs vary in colouration from a rich vivid green, to almost brown, often with speckles or splotches (so scientific my description!) as here to none at all. Their size varies greatly and some of the very large ones, almost entirely green, look strikingly similar to bullfrogs at first.
