Hope you don't have a repeat of the frog verses the sparrow, of a few years ago

That thing would eat my cat!

Awesome shot! ..but aren't you afraid it will eat your fish?

So far this one is behaving. No dead birds in the pond so far

I have had more issues with them catching birds then the fish. They may have eaten a goldfish but it appears they have not by the number of goldfish I have. They have never eaten a Koi.

I wish I could say the same!
I'm so paranoid since that happened, that I freak out at the sight of ANY frogs by my pond, even the tiniest ones....I don't know how to tell the difference between species when they're small!

I just let nature be nature. I would need to hunt frogs non stop to keep them out, not worth it.

Agree I just let them be. There are some large bullfrogs in my pond, and they seem to leave my fish alone as far as I can tell. Either way, I consider it population control.

Cool pic, mine will sit in the duckweed in the bog with its eyes sticking out.
