hello Aimilios!
good eye contact!!!well composed...
best sERGIO
Geia sou Aimilie!
Very nice shot of this frog but this is not a Rana temporaria but a Rana graeca. The differences from R.temporaria are the dark throat, the longer hind legs and the distance of the nostrils comparing to the distance between nostril and eye which is smaller than the first. Also the shape of the body and snout.
Also, R.temporaria is not native but the common european frog with a huge distribution.

Hello Amilios,
Excellent photo, great POV, great focus and very strange attitude of this frog, it seems to express curiosity. Good job!
