Maggie Rudy found this nearly white Sierran Treefrog. Since this little frog does have the black eye stripe, it is not leucistic. But even the experts don't know what to call this unusually pale frog!

Bill Bennett photographed a Sierran Treefrog in a more normal-colored emerald green.

This frog can change color from green to a rusty red. Here are two frogs that Carolyn Andre photographed hiding in her barbecue. The black eye stripe stays the same though.

Thanks to Maggie, Bill and Carolyn for allowing me to share their photos with you here.

We received 1.2 inches of rain yesterday and overnight. More rain today. We hit 30 inches season to date, which is still well below average. We'll take every drop!

Spring doesn't know...

This Buck somehow managed to snag a string of decorative bells. He is quite entangled but seems to be doing okay. He's able to eat, but he isn't able to walk quietly because the bells jingle as he moves. Mark Haveman was the first to let me know about him - the Buck in in the area of Fish Rock Road in Gualala. Bill Bennett then sent me these photos of the poor guy.

It would be nice if we could get them off of him, but that's easier said than done. This Buck might be stuck with the bells until he loses his antlers early next year. Or, hopefully, he will figure a way to remove them.

Thanks to Bill for allowing me to share his photos with you here.

The heavy fog of the past couple of days is gone. It's sunny and breezy today.
