I answered, &#8220;A frog&#8221; and he jumped back. I assured him that there was no need to be scared of him. We did not\u00a0touch him or anything like that. The kids took turns looking, I snapped a quick\u00a0picture with my cell phone and left him alone.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_8840\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8840\" class=\"wp-image-8840 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.reneegphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Renee_Giugliano_Photography_Personal_Frog_Porch_Flowers01.jpg\" alt=\"Renee Giugliano Photography, Oak Harbor, WA Photographer specializing in Pregnancy, Newborn &amp; Children's Portraits\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-8840\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">He was sitting right on top of the doorbell ringer the first time we saw him.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The next day we figured he was gone but then noticed that he was sitting on one of the flower pots on the porch.

Well, good thing we took, some pictures. I watered my plants and we went on with our day. This morning we heard the FedEx guy drop off a box. I opened up the door and saw our little friend sitting there on a leaf looking out towards the street. I immediately said, &#8220;Guard Frog&#8221;. The way he was sitting he just looked like he was keeping a look out. You know, just keeping his eyes on the street, looking for\u00a0anything suspicious. Or maybe he was scoping the place out for food.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8846\" src=\"http:\/\/www.reneegphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Renee_Giugliano_Photography_Personal_Frog_Porch_Flowers032.jpg\" alt=\"Renee Giugliano Photography, Oak Harbor, WA Photographer specializing in Pregnancy, Newborn &amp; Children's Portraits\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.reneegphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Renee_Giugliano_Photography_Personal_Frog_Porch_Flowers032.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.reneegphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Renee_Giugliano_Photography_Personal_Frog_Porch_Flowers032-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8847\" src=\"http:\/\/www.reneegphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Renee_Giugliano_Photography_Personal_Frog_Porch_Flowers04.jpg\" alt=\"Renee Giugliano Photography, Oak Harbor, WA Photographer specializing in Pregnancy, Newborn &amp; Children's Portraits\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.reneegphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Renee_Giugliano_Photography_Personal_Frog_Porch_Flowers04.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.reneegphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Renee_Giugliano_Photography_Personal_Frog_Porch_Flowers04-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8848\" src=\"http:\/\/www.reneegphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Renee_Giugliano_Photography_Personal_Frog_Porch_Flowers05.jpg\" alt=\"Renee Giugliano Photography, Oak Harbor, WA Photographer specializing in Pregnancy, Newborn &amp; Children's Portraits\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.reneegphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Renee_Giugliano_Photography_Personal_Frog_Porch_Flowers05.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.reneegphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Renee_Giugliano_Photography_Personal_Frog_Porch_Flowers05-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I decided to get my camera out and take a few pictures of him.
