Froggies

Froggy went a courting? I don't know if that is what these two are up to but they were just sitting there this morning in the pond.  I was waiting to capture the birds but these two showed up and the birds didn't!  Do you know folk song, "Froggy went a courtin and he did ride, sword and pistol by his side,"?
Lots of versions around.   I am sure Burl Ives did it when I was a kid.  And now my favorite version is Bob Dylan's on a disk he made maybe ten years ago.  Just Dylan, his guitar and his harmonica!

  2. Oh such cute little guys! The last time I tried to get a frog photo, a friend's dog rushed up to see what I was looking at. My photo was of a splash. :)
