[–] Tempus_Fugit@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 child) That might be a Green Frog actually. It looks like it has dorsolateral ridges running down its back. Bullfrogs don't have those. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] kaklerbitmap@lemmy.world [S] 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 child) Very cool! I'm trying to become more familiar with all of our local species, but I admit I don't know much about our local amphibians. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Tempus_Fugit@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago I was always under the impression they were bullfrogs too. They are very close. Both green frogs and bullfrogs are in the same genus Lithobates. If it sounds like a loose banjo string it's a green frog. permalink fedilink source parent
