Young Wood Frog

We saw this little guy/gal yesterday (was it really only yesterday?) on a walk at Edworthy Park (bottom of the hill and along the railway tracks). This is just a young Wood Frog and so was tiny (more like the size of our Boreal Chorus Frog). I've never held a frog (and I'm sure I never will), so thank you, Doug, for holding this little creature so that we could get a photo or two. S/he was so co-operative (LOL) and such a beautiful little thing.

The following link goes to a short, fascinating video on YouTube, about how Wood Frogs freeze solid in the winter.
