Its note
Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 348.6 Hz, 97 cents sharp of E4, the nearest tine on the comb. The next fifteen are its overtones, and each one draws its own figure: sand gathers on the lines that stay still.

About it
A frog is an amphibian: many species start as tadpoles in water, then grow legs and lungs, though others develop directly into small frogs. It catches insects with a long, sticky tongue that flips out of its mouth in a flash. To swallow, a frog pulls its big eyes down into its head, and they help push the food down its throat.
Tap it: a fly buzzes in and hovers, the frog's tongue shoots out, catches it and snaps back, its eyes sink to swallow, and it croaks twice with a puff of its throat. Pick a green, red, blue or yellow frog in the Splash tab. With ✋ Hands-on on, press on the frog and a fly buzzes at your fingertip: drag it around and the frog turns to keep it in front, and let go and it catches the fly.
