It was a nice evening with a beautiful full moon. My daughter Meghan and I were the only ones that monitored. There were no frogs calling but we saw several Blanchard Cricket Frogs hopping around and got a picture of one. One very large American Bullfrog was on the shore line, but headed into the lake as we approached. I managed to get pictures of a young Bullfrog on the other side of the lake. Up at the restrooms we found a young Gulf Coast Toad. We spooked one Wilson's Snipe while looking for frogs and oddly enough had a Field Sparrow after dark flitting around in the Buttonbush near the lake edge.
