The return of the frogs
Houston, you asked for it: Frogs! a sequel exhibition opens Friday for a full summer run. This city is frog-crazy, and that's probably a good thing given all the recent rain. Any chance of peace and quiet at my end of the pond evaporated with the ever-increasing, onslaught of a non-stop frog chorus. Big frogs, little frogs, bull frogs, and teenie-tiny lime green frogs greet me. I step, a frog leaps. Even my goofy cocker spaniel has given up his beloved rock hunting for water-drenched splash-a-frog chases. The Houston Museum of Natural Science (HMNS) discovered the amphibians' popularity during the Frogs! A Chorus of Colors exhibition. I'm sure I'm one of many who lamented the end of the exhibit. By the time I found a free weekend, I was too late. If you're a fellow procrastinator, you're in luck. HMNS is bringing back the frogs--and then some. New frogs to the exhibit include Clown Treefrogs and the Strawberry Poison Dart frog. With the new exhibit running from June 1 through September 03, 2007, you'll have all summer to get your fill of the amphibians.
