Absolutely beautiful. I was wondering if you have any technique in approaching them? Posted 11 years ago

  Ferdy, with amphibians and reptiles the best way to get close is taking your time. They don't recognize objects but they just are afraid of movement. When you approach the water they will all jump away, but when you stay at the edge for some time they will go back to the land again. At that moment they think you are a tree and you can approach them. Trees and plants also move in the wind so they don't mind you move a bit as well. Posted 11 years ago

The Marsh Frog

The Marsh Frog is the largest frog native to Europe and belongs to the family of true frogs. It is very similar in appearance to the closely related Edible Frog and Pool Frog. These three species, now again in the genus "Pelophylax", are often referred to as "green frogs" to distinguish them from the more terrestrial European "Rana" species, which are known as "brown frogs".
