Ant Amplexus? by grammyn

Ant Amplexus?

I saw this toad on top of a trellis in my yard and decided to feature her in my album today. It wasn't until I went to upload it that I noticed the little ant with high hopes(?) at her backside. This one isn't posed it just happened! ;~}
Awwww ...lovely creature! Beautiful colors and textures. And what a dreamy expression. could be the "ant amplexus" thing going on. :)

What a great photo, Katy. You have a wonderful backyard with these frogs in it. Sure gives you the opportunity to take such cool photos of them. Interesting addition, the ant. Gotta love what we do not see until we crop or upload our photos.

@marilyn Thanks. I think it is a gray tree frog. I looked them up and it says they can change from a green to gray depending on where it is. It does look very much like granite to me!

The frog looks so still like a garden ornament.. like his coloring and the ant is kinda hitching a ride. great subject from your garden.
