Les grenouilles

The title of this post is in French because these are French frogs croaking—and because grenouille is such a fun word to say: gren-OO-ee. Unfortunately it’s a really hard sound to photograph without stumbling upon an actual frog in the dark. So I’ve taken the liberty of pairing it with a lathyrus latifolius flower, also known as a perennial pea (or a gesse à larges feuilles in French).
The frogs were recorded at night in Le Cannet. The photo was taken in the hills above Èze-sur-Mer. I think they complement each other nicely.
