  13. having found out that it’s #WorldFrogDay (& gratified to learn that there is such, in fact) —

  15. 🐸✨ From a paperclip-sized "ethereal" frog in the #Amazon to #India's star-speckled "galaxy frog" World Frog Day is all about new species – and the challenges they face.

    While roughly 150 new #amphibians are described each year, researchers warn that habitat loss and even "photo #tourism" are putting many at risk before they can be fully studied.

  19. I just heard it's #WorldFrogDay
    But I don't have any frogs, just toads so I'm going with that. Sonoran Desert Toad (Incilius alvarius).

    It's not hard to get them to eat from my hand, but they don't really get tame and I can't tell them apart. They're still hibernating but should be out soon.

  20. The song of the frogs in Spring is my inspiration for this vessel. Mist-kissed dawn, a hush so sweet, Frog-song hums where waters meet. Petals wake in golden light, Spring’s soft whisper, fresh and bright. What do you find inspiring about Spring? #spring #equinox #worldfrogday
