Went to check on all of the plants in my garden and found this fella hanging out. I was pretty upset that I couldn't catch him. Them suckas can jump!

Been seeing a lot of frogs around the house lately. Here's one hanging out on my basshole sparkle boat.

Leave him alone. He's eating the bugs that are going to feast on your garden.

Actually, I caught him and went put him in my garden.

ETA: I thought you were talking about the one on my boat. Yeah the leopard frog jumped and it was too dark for me to see where he went. Might still be in the garden for all I know. He's hanging around back there somewhere.

Smart. My daughter made me some "Toad Abodes" for my garden. It is a terra cotta clay flowerpot turned upside down, with a "V" chipped out of the rim for the "door". The chipped out piece is glued over the drainage hole to keep the sunlight out. It stays cool and moist in the garden soil if you have a slightly shaded area. Frogs love to stay in them during the day, then come out at night to hunt.

That's a great idea. I might have to look into doing something like that.

Found a tree frog hanging in one of the folds of the banana plants.

Was checking out my lot on Bayou Lafourche and saw this guy hanging out. Must be a Nile Crocodile.

Pictures are kinda crappy but it was the best I could do. Huge alligator snapper in Toledo Bend swam up to within 10 yards of the boat. Sucker must've been 60-70 lbs.

That's so true. Those three probably account for 75% of the posts.

You know, that's what I thought at first. But I'm not sure. Cause every other ringneck I've ever seen had a more defined ring. Certainly looks the part.

Maybe you baws can help me with that.

Red-bellied snake (Storeria occipitomaculata). They come in a variety of colors.

In what part of LA did you find it?
