* this is a Green Frog with minimal green in its color pattern. This 
species is hugely variable in colour pattern, and this smudge-like blurs 
on tannish-grey background is one of the options. Mink Frogs would be 
more green/cream/black, and would have a more rounded head shape and a 
much shorter middle toe.
