Description
Growing up, I was fascinated by darting black tadpoles in the creek behind my house, and by their transformation into hopping green amphibians. I still look forward every spring to hearing the jubilant frog chorus celebrating new life bursting forth. Opening Day carries some of that giddy joy I feel. Frogs are an important part of our ecosystem, and their diminishing numbers are a warning sign of threats to the environment. I am deeply grateful to organizations that are working to preserve life on our beautiful little planet. The idea of a frog looking out of a lily was inspired by a photograph in a 2006 National Wildlife Federation calendar.
