Northern Green Frog
On the shoreline of Peck Lake, a Northern Green Frog (Lithobates clamitans melanota) quietly laps up the sun rays during the final days of summer at Algonquin Provincial Park, Peck Lake Trail, Ontario, Canada. Algonquin Park celebrates 125 years.

The northern green frog is a subspecies of the green frog, ''Lithobates clamitans''. It is native to the northeastern North America and has been introduced to British Columbia. Its mating call sounds like the single note of a plucked banjo. It is also quite common in the pet trade.
