“I learned that if you approach quietly and do not cast a shadow over them, frogs will not leave their stones or the quiet stream edge, where they rest their eyes showing just above and their bodies below the waterline. And I learned further that if you are quiet and slower than slow, you do not have to ‘catch’ a frog at all – you can just slide your hand beneath one and lift it up without inciting any hint of fear or effort to escape.
“I learned that if you do these things, the frog will be calm and settle in your palm. And that once settled, he will be happy to stay, and the frog’s willingness in this regard filled me with serenity, and with joy, and with an unfolding sense of nature’s irrepressible connection.”
