This guy was in a small trough planted with parsley in my garden and hopped out as I watered! Just wondered what it is.
Sorry if it's blindingly obvious to you all, but I'm new to this lark!  |

Thanks for the quick replies! It was a very obliging frog as it waited for me to go indoors and get the camera and then sat and let me take the photos!!
Actually, it was taken on Friday, but I've only discovered today how to upload photos on here. We've had no rain here today since about half nine this morning and only 2mm overnight, so everything is still fairly dry. |

Ah relief thought that I had upset someone and that cloud was just over me but once again great photo and shows how common frog changes colour to match surroundings. I have photo of frog in pond very green to match pond colours
