Pacific Chorus Frog (Pseudacris regilla)Observer
tuoichenDescription
Many Tree / Chorus Frogs were busily singing in the Clay Pit. An ephemeral puddle held about 5 egg masses, two with just "hatched" larvae. These seemed to be disintegrating. Individual eggs are no longer visible. Egg mass size about 3-4 cm; larvae about 8-10 mm. The observer saw one tiny, skinny tadpole swimming.
The ID is tentative.
