Bullfrog?
Bullfrog?

It looks to me like (Rana aurora) Northern Red-legged Frog. Where did you find it? They are on the watch-list for a species in decline here in California as are many other amphibians (sadly). The big old head and body had me thinking bullfrog but the red legs are a dead give away. Congratulations!
Malachi caught him in a little ornamental pond my mom has out in her fern garden.

Kyle,
I’m honored to know that I have a celebrity hiding out in my pond. I wonder if my goldfish recognize how honored they should be to swim daily with Rana aurora.
Thanks for the information.

The photo and the verbal captions together combine to create together some great late summer imagery. Very cool. Nicely done and thanks.

Love the photo; makes me wistful for boys and summer and dirt.
I had one that showed the frog more in focus but the dirty hands are what caught at my heart.
