Common Frog Rana Temporaria Sitting On A Turquoise Mat In The Forest. Close Up Photo. Stock Photography

Common frogs are amphibians, breeding in ponds during the spring and spending much of the rest of the year feeding in woodland, gardens, hedgerows and tussocky grassland. They are familiar inhabitants of garden ponds, where they lay their eggs in big `rafts` of spawn. They feed on a variety of invertebrates and even smaller amphibians. The turquoise mat is placed in the forest on the ground in the needles and twigs of coniferous trees. Interesting color combination.
