Posted: 26 May 2005 Topic: Marsh Frog Identification & Sightings



Hello

I don't know anything about frogs, although I started to do some research when I heard a very strange noise from the vicinity of our garden pond earlier this week.  I checked in various sources and the sound seemed to be like the recording of a Marsh Frog, but from what I've read, it was not likely in this area (East Yorkshire).

However, I stumbled across this message thread and it mentions TopHill Low Reservoir in East Yorkshire.  That is only a couple of fields away from our property (maybe 1 mile in a straight line).

I have managed to see it (at a distance of about 10 feet) and have a couple of photos, but still don't know what type of frog it is.  If anyone can identify it from the picture, I'd be happy to forward it by email.

[ Incidentally - how long is it likely to keep up this noise !!! ]
