Bullfrogs and Snakes at Arastradero Preserve

Today, I got a good picture of the bullfrogs that inhabit the Sobey Pond. Their deep loud call sounds like made by a creature the size of a deer, at least I thought so initially. After so many rains the pond is full to the brim, and the bullfrogs can be easily seen from the road. These are the American Bullfrogs, introduced to California for they tasty legs. Bon Appetit.


Above the Sobey Pond I was alerted by a rattlesnake hiding in the vegetation along the road.
