The Common Frog is the only species of frog found in Ireland and is also Ireland's most common amphibian. It is a protected species because the European population of Common Frogs is declining.The colour of its skin can vary from pale yellow to purple on top, and sometimes it has a speckled belly underneath. The colour depends on the main colour of its habitat and this helps to protect it from nasty predators!

Frog among the bog mossesAn adult frog among the bog mosses in Liffey Head bog. The tadpoles live in the bog pools where they feed on tiny aquatic insects. The presence of multicoloured Sphagnum moss is a sign of an actively growing blanket bog. ( Richard Nairn)copyright R. Nairn
