Last One In
After the dogs scare all the frogs into the pond, I sidle up to the perimeter. Weeks of torrential downpours have driven the water level up to an all-time high mark. I plop down on the ground to take a break and spy this little guy below in camo; too scared or cold to jump. He looks like he’s trying to get up the guts to go, but I’m sitting above him and he doesn’t dare move. I gig him with my aperture and the noise gives him the gumption to jump.
Sploosh…plunk!
