today's funky frog of the day is the green frog (Lithobates clamitans) - this stunning example is a blue morph, caused by a lack of yellow pigment in the skin! this is one of the most common frogs in eastern north america, and show some diversity in their coloration, although usually not as intensely blue as this fellow.
photo by Ken Potter - check out the rest of the photos of this frog that the user uploaded, they're gorgeous!

A regular customer at work told me about a little park with a sign that says “Don’t harass or remove the frogs” so of course we had to go check it out.
We thought we weren’t going to find any, but then as we were leaving this little guy gave a mighty hop right in my path!

I saw a green frog (as in Lithobates clamitans) for the first time the other day but I feel like an idiot for trying to explain that it is a specific species of frog
I'm like "I saw a green frog"
And people be like

This may be a bit of a long shot since it's not an amazing photo but do you know what species this guy is? I found it in northern Wisconsin if that helps at all??? Ik you aren't as familiar with US amphibians but I've been wondering for a couple of year so thought I'd ask 🤷🏻
Very friendly guy who had to be moved due to dog activities :)
This is a Lithobates, but the angle does not show whether it is L. catesbeianus or L. clamitans. My money is on the latter based on overall head shape. It's a male; check out that huge tympanum.

Here we see a very special green frog [Lithobates clamitans, formerly Rana clamitans] displaying unusual blue coloration instead of the typical green. This mutation is apparently relatively common in the area of Michigan where this specimen was found. Image by James Harding.

#0043 Northern Green Frog (Lithobates clamitans melanota)
Been thinking about doing a Frogs (and Toads!) of Virginia (USA) series. There are 28 of them, not counting the various subspecies. Hmmmmm....

[CM] Amphibians
Amphibians! These words were all very fun to come up with. Who doesn’t like listening to frog sounds? Below we have translations for four frogs, three salamanders, and one fellow with a name from base Clanmew.
Common toad (Bufo bufo) - Amam*
Small and common. Poisonous to eat, but some cats like to chase them anyway.
Spring peeper (Pseudacris crucifer) - Eep
Tiny chorus frog with light peeping calls that are a tell-tale sign of spring. This word is also an unintentional homonym with base Clanmew eep*, which means black rat!
Bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus) - Rroak
Large distinct frog with a loud, deep call. A common game among apprentices is ranging up-and-down riverbanks and looking for bullfrogs to startle into the water.
Green frog (Rana clamitans) - Ook
Second-largest frog on ClayClan territory. Green frogs are very territorial - some cats like to watch them wrestle!
Pickerel frog (Lithobates palustris) - Rroo
Heavily spotted frog. Stressed pickerel frogs produce a toxic secretion that makes them poisonous to eat; it may also irritate skin.
Wood frog (Lithobates sylvaticus) - Rrikrrik
Brown-and-black frog. Sometimes found frozen in the dead of winter - cats believe them to be dead during this time, but they actually thaw in the spring!
Spotted salamander (Ambystoma maculatum) - Sslip
Large salamander with distinct yellow spots. Bitter and poisonous, never hunted.
Dusky salamander (Desmognathus fuscus) - Mwip
Mottled and relatively nondescript salamander. Occasionally found foraging in wet shady spots.
Common newt (Lissotriton vulgaris) - Ssliks
Little spotted newt. Found on land most of the year, but move into ponds for the breeding season. Also known as efts; the acolyte Eftrunner’s Claymew name, Sslikspanpean, could also be translated as Newtrunner.
