Beautiful-frog

A California Tree frog (Pseudacris cadaverina) sat in an ephemeral pond in the North Fork of the San Gabriel River. The midday sun was about 93 degrees F. and has been quite hot all summer.It is not only a special moment to find this frog sunning itself on top of the angel hair moss, but it is a wonder why this pond still has water in it and it's September 3!
