How Do You Join This Gang?
To join you just need to be a regular check in there is no membership
any one can be a FROG ...but .... if you want to be certified that's a different story. You must be approved by
the board of governors then you will receive a suitable for framing slab of paper with your name on it.It is hard
to keep up with all the Green Frogs. If you have a “Slab” and your Call has not been posted as being a “Green Frog Member”
please email me so I can update
the page and let the world know you are a “Green Frog”
THIS IS NOT A COMMERICAL WEB SITE!
It has been brought to my attention that some Hams have complained about the picture
to the right (The Green Frog Hats) and that a few of the Greenfrogs are making a profet from these hats. When I put this site
up, I did it out of my own pocket and asked nobody for nothing. Just like the Hams selling the hats above. They sell 4
and gave away the 5th. This is NOT a commerical website and will never be as long as I am paying for it. I do this for
the fun of it and because I enjoy it. So please don't send me anything you want to sell on this website. Thank you K4GAM
WHERE DID ALL THE GREEN FROGS GO?
They must bask in the sun to get warm and cool off in the shade, or under the water.
Amphibians, reptiles and insects are ectotherms. During the spring, you may remember seeing many tadpoles in a pond or
stream. Then in the summer the tadpoles grow arms and legs; they turn into a frog. Where exactly do the frogs go in the
winter? I don't think anyone has seen a frog jumping around in the frigid winter months, especially in the northern United
States. Frogs are ectotherms and because they have to keep themselves warm, the winter would be especially tragic for them.
Spring peepers, wood frogs, green frogs and others bury themselves in the mud around a wetland, such as a pond or stream.
The interesting fact about frogs is that because they only bury themselves about an inch deep, some species of frogs actually freeze into
a solid state. How do they stay alive, though? Well, they have special components in their body that actually act as antifreeze. Their body
converts glycogen into glucose, which keeps the frog alive while it's frozen solid. When the ground becomes warm again in spring, the frogs
thaw-out and remain active until winter comes around again!
