Notes

One of the ponds had at least 8 S. Leopard Frogs in it. The pictures are a little dark, but they are definitely Leopards.

I think these might be Lithobates berlandieri. Pictures are a bit dark, but the ones I saw and heard in Guadalupe county were all berlandieri.

EDIT - now I'm not sure. I will try to go up to this spot if it rains and double check their leopard frog IDs. Both species probably occur in the county?

OK, I went back there and found two Lithobates and they were both berlandieri. I still think both species might occur in this area.
