 Date: 9/20 Time: 4:00 Air temp: 30 c Surface water temp: 29 c Weather: sunny Day length: 12h 17m Observations: -Mud along shore -Bass along shore -Frogs in shore grasses -Same dragonfly that was there last time was there again -Grass still felt dry despite rain -Crickets -Tire and footprint marks in the mud  Changes: -Not much wind this time -Water level was higher -Saw fish (bass)  -Saw frogs for the first time there -Shore line was muddy (last time it was dry) -Water and air temp hotter -Some color change in the leaves This Visit: Last Visit:  ( same spot just horizontal angle)       EDD Question: I had to visit on back to back days because of complications with my experiment, and on the second day I could still see my old footprints in the mud and there were bugs crawling around them. How did my footprints along the shoreline and in the pond itself effect the environment? The owner of the pond told me it was constructed with a clay layer under...

Frogs - October 12 -

  Mass emergence of little frogs (froglets) happens most often after a big rain, and there were severe storms on Sep 20, 2025 when I first noted the frogs. Prediction made with a little research: I have come to the conclusion that the little frogs that I saw on September 20 were frogs transitioning from a froglet into a frog. They were likely at the stage where they still have a slight tail but were undergoing metamorphosis in order to reach their full size. Frogs in this stage of metamorphosis often stay near the water’s edge in the vegetation unless disturbed, then they jump back into the water and swim off from danger (aka. me). Findings: I visited my site at five pm. October 12, but instead of doing my normal Field observations I spent twenty minutes carefully walking around the edge of the pond at my location in order to attempt to capture one of these froglets in action. I got a decent video of one of them that I have below and it confirmed my hypothesis that those little f...

They were there one day, and the next, I went back to pick something up, and they...
