개구리 공원

 보스톤의 개구리 공원[여름엔 수영 겨울엔 스케이팅>

In summer, the Frog Pond is a shallow wading pool. I visited early in the morning, before they had turned on the spray fountain in the middle. In the winter months, part of the pond is turned into a skating rink.

These two froggy friends watch over the pond.

Fishing froggy's can of worms.

A closer view of the thoughtful frog. He looks like he needs a hug, doesn't he?

 

 

 

There, there! Comforting one of the frogs that watches over the pond

 

Another large frog watches over the entrance to the Tadpole Playground, adjacent to the pond.

Of course, there are tadpoles in the Tadpole Playground. They're bronze insets in the walkway surrounding the play area.

Here's a closeup of one of the tadpole insets.

There are also bronze lilypads inset into the walkway in the playground.

There's another group of large frogs in a water play area of the playground. This one is a scuba diving frog. Unfortunately, he needs a new mask!

Lifeguard frog.

Scrubbing frog. He's also got a bar of soap (on the other side, not visible in this photo).

The playground is surrounded by concrete benches. Many of them have froggy mosaics set into their bases.

Here's another mosaic.

Another close-up of frog mosaic.

Yet another froggy mosaic detail.

Here's a closeup of another one of the insets, showing a frog with an ice cream cone. Yum!

Some of the benches are decorated with frog paintings instead of mosaics. Most of them show the frogs playing games or sports.

There's also a large circular mosaic set into the walkway at the entrance to the playground. Here's part of it.

Here's the other half of the large circular frog mosaic.
