A brown frog on top of a reddish frog with his arms around here. Only their heads and a bit of back are above the smooth water that reflects their round eyes.

Published between 1729-1747, Catesby's 'Natural History of Carolina, Florida and the Bahama Islands' is a written record of this wide area's flora and fauna. It includes 220 painstakingly coloured plates

Naturalist Mark Catesby (1683-1749)
depicted his subjects interacting with their habitat. Though this etching is stylised, the way the frog plunges into water shows its proportions & pattern. The different parts of the purple pitcher plant are also presented. An early ecological study on #FrogFriday

The interior of the plate is adorned with a polychrome design of sparrows and frogs in blossoming flowers and plants on the turquoise ground made in the Cloisonne technique. The borders are adorned with polychrome floral and foliage ornaments made in the same technique. The backside is decorated with a foliate scroll ornament made in the Cloisonne technique. Unmarked.”

A Happy #frogFriday to one and all!

There are at least thirteen tadpoles in the bowl. Unfortunately, the frogspawn in the pond hasn't hatched. It was likely laid a little earlier, and scraping it off the ground may have damaged it. 2/2 #frogFriday

To be fair, I’ve seen a number of birds eating what look to be bullfrog tadpoles. I read the introduction to the western states maybe due to attempts at commercial farming for frog legs. (Tastes like chicken 🍗)

#FrogFriday and #WorldFrogDay
The American Bullfrog has been widely introduced in the Western US. They have been known to eat small birds, other frogs, and small snakes. Their tadpoles are large, taking up to 2 yrs to mature.

photo of the frog yoke on display at the museum, side view

photo of the gallery sign: “Classic Veracruz artist (s); Mexico Frog yoke 600-900 CE Greenstone, pigment (probably hematite) The Michael C. Rockefeller Memorial Collection, Gift of Nelson A. Rockefeller, 1963 (1978.412.15) Recorded provenance: Stendahl Art Galleries, Los Angeles, until 1956; Nelson A. Rockefeller, New York, on permanent loan to the MPA, 1956-63; the MPA, New York, 1963-78 Yokes are named for their formal similarity to those used to harness draft animals. When placed vertically, they resemble cave openings, believed to be portals into the underworld. This work, with the bulging eyes and elongated mouth of a crouching amphibian, evokes the earth deity who resides at such an entryway. The supernatural imagery is appropriate for a sculpture associated with the Mesoamerican ballgame, given that the game could end in ritual sacrifice.”
