#HappyFriday and happy #FrogFriday -The red-legged frog (Rana aurora aurora) lives along the Pacific coast of North America from southern British Columbia to Baja California del Norte. In British Columbia, it is found throughout Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands and the Lower Mainland, west of the Coast Mountains.

I photographed this red-legged frog in #Sayward on Vancouver Island years ago. I never overstay when I photograph them because I don't want to stress them.
