The yellow rump warbler was great and that’s one time when a rump shot is the perfect one. (I get too many shots of birds that turn their backs on me, from now on I’m going to call them rump shots instead of butt shots ..,far more refined, don’t you think? I learned the difference between western and Eastern towhees...in Oregon, they have red eyes! Cool to know that! Loved this, so glad I came back to view it.Sallie (FullTime-Life)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14270588850092355358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5569287982426382052.post-26864632981135076962019-02-28T17:02:24.968-05:002019-02-28T17:02:24.968-05:00That is a great frog .and I love that you have a v...That is a great frog .and I love that you have a vernal pool!

I just had no blog content this week thus the video. They say one picture is worth a 1,000 words.

Those pools are a wonderful source for many species both for food and reproduction, particularly insects.<br />I like the opening sequence to your videos it really is a "we're going on a walk shot", and including the vid as a blog post is a good idea as your readers only have the one place to look and comment. all the best.<br />Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01047342243577979820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5569287982426382052.post-86284085950522328222019-02-24T07:19:55.979-05:002019-02-24T07:19:55.979-05:00Hello, love the cute tree frog.

I will watch it again for sure. The pictures of the Grey Tree Frog are superb. I have never seen one and I would love to. Vernal ponds here are used frequently by salamanders to lay their eggs, precisely because they dry up and hence do not habour predators. Any salamanders using your pool?David M.
