Edible Frog - head, Heesch, Netherlands I was taking a small break by sitting on the edge of this small pond when I spotted this Edible frog, in dutch also named Bastard Frog or Middle Green frog. <br />
<br />
After initially spooking it with my presence, it then came back close to shore. Sitting there stationary and occassionally lashing out at small insects foolish enough to approach the water edge.<br />
