A steady rain kept me mostly confined to quarters today, but as the night came on, the precipitation lessened and, on a brief trek up and down the driveway to look for lightning bugs—no success yet on that front—I noticed, camped out on the drip edge above the basement door, a napping Gray Tree Frog. I didn't want to disturb the batrachian, so I don't know whether it was a he or a she. Whatever its sex, however, I'm pretty sure it had just returned from having sex... or, at least, trying to at the local wetlands singles bar. The tree frog appeared to be all worn out. Courtship will do that to you. This, I vaguely remember.
