Self portraits

The following self portrait is entitled, “Kiss me and I’ll turn into a Prince!” I spotted an American Bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus) during a photowalk through Huntley Meadows Park. That’s my reflection in the water. (I was hanging over the edge of a boardwalk that goes through the wetlands.)

Compare and contrast the preceding photograph with the following photo, taken more than an hour later than the first picture. Yep, that’s my reflection in the water again (shown below). What’s different? Did you notice that one of two snails shown in the first photograph is missing in the second photo? Frogs eat snails … hmmm, I wonder.
