Illustration Description
This is a painting of a tadpole stage of the common frog. The fertilised eggs can take from 2 to 4 weeks to hatch and 10 to 15 weeks later after hatching, the tadpoles metamorphose into small froglets. When tadpoles have fully absorbed their tails, thats when they leave the water as tiny froglets.
