Ooops, I meant to say either Green (not Tree!) or Bull frogs.   Do Green =
frogs have light brown backs??  Or either green or brown?   I am no =
expert on reptiles and the last time I studied them was when I took =
Biology in high school!    Thanks. liz

These are Green Frogs, Liz.

Our only tree frogs are the spring peeper...a very small frog. Bullfrogs =
are not listed as being present in Pictou County according to Gilhen's =
book (1984). Perhaps all the effort of volunteers a few years ago in =
doing the Herp Atlas came up with reliable sightings for Pictou (or =
Antigonish). I get a number of folks every year telling me of Bullfrogs =
up my way - only once have they turned out to be Bullfrogs (normally, =
they're Green Frogs) - and these were just over the Antigonish border =
into Guysborough County.

And we could be so fortunate to have an overpopulation of frogs!
