This morning was
spent collecting along the
Tule River Bottom from
Bourbon property to the
Worth bridge. The river
at the present time is
not flowing but rather
it consists of a number
of puddles in the lower
places. About each of
these puddles are large
quantities of frogs. They
are in such large quantities
that it seems as though
there would not be
food enough to maintain
them. I estimated the
quantity seen during
the mile ride along the
river as 5000+. These
Frogs I believe were the
young of the Bull Frog
for I found a graduating
size pupa to the larger
Bull Frog. Two
