"The air around the pond teemed with insects that they trapped on their sticky tongues. Best of all, a screen of thick reeds grew around the water, shielding the frogs from dangerous creatures. Life was one big festival for them, which they celebrated with non-stop swimming and long bouts of croacking at sunrise and sunset."
