Bullfrog

An American bullfrog floats in a roadside drainage ditch in rural Douglas County near Roseburg, Ore., on Friday, July 8, 2011.  In Oregon the American bullfrog, which is native to the eastern and central United States, is considered an invasive species.  Known for their voracious appetite, bullfrogs prey upon native turtles, frogs, fish and snakes.    

I got a little muddy and wet stalking the frog.  I had to get the camera as low as possible to the water to get the reflection.  The frog was very cooperative and didn't swim away till I nearly touched him with the lens.
