Day 13: close up time with Hoss

A project log for Raising Tadpoles 2021 edition

Got a temporary pond again, so I once again decided to rescue and raise some more tadpoles

Everyone still seems to be doing well. Tadpoles such as Hoss are now demonstrating some control of their rear legs.  Instead of doing the normal video this time, I broke out my camera for some close-up photos.  I wish I could upload the full-res originals, but that pesky darn 5MB file limit.

It was challenging getting any decent shots due to a combination of Hoss being afraid of the camera and slow autofocus/no manual focus option. You can see a distinct pattern on his back on the second to last photo, a pattern that will still remain when he becomes an adult.
