[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note [French]
It's during a TREKEARTH weekend in the Val-de-Travers, that I had the occasion to take this photography of a young (approx. 1.5 cm) russet-red frog (Rana remporaria, up to 10 cm length).
Frequent species in Switzerland, this frog lives until altitudes of 2'500 m. It lives at the beginning of spring in stagnant water or in weak current, after in the meadows and the forests.
