These images* are in my new book, "One Morning at the Frog Pond". Inspired by an amazing rainbow morning at the Frog Pond. This is a small (7 inches square) book with photos of activity in the Frog Pond — birds, animals, plants, rainbow. 26 pages: 15 have photos from one magical morning, 2/26/2019, with a rainbow, kite, mallards, and other adventures. Ten bonus pages, with photos of other animals and birds, and even frogs. A page of text.

I can offer this for $45, to all who want it. This will cover the cost of printing. If I can save with a bulk order, profits will go to the Frog Pond Maintenance Fund. If one wants to make it an even $50, the extra will go to the Fund, of course. If you want a copy, please respond with a comment on any photo, or contact me directly before January 15, 2020.

I do hope that the Town of Portola Valley will affirm permanent protection for the entire remaining ecosystem of the Frog Pond, including the remaining undisturbed high ground necessary for the birds and animals of the Frog Pond. Perhaps as part of the proposed Frog Pond - Alpine Road Corridor Open Space.
