Science and color at Roadside Park 2020-11-17 - Adair County, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com.

She called out for me to watch my step on discovery of what looked like a poor squashed frog on the drive, pictured in the outline at left. We sidestepped and continued our walk in the chilly fall air, wondering who would squash a frog. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
