Frogman and Tadpole Babies

Beavers really are great builders. They built what appears to be a whole underwater village in a small mountain lake near Twisp, Washington. My brother and I were padding around on the surface above this village earlier this summer. He noticed some fat little tadpoles skittering about us. He said these babies were watched over by a big old frogman down in this huge beaver dam city. I think he's right. We sat for many moments up there, looking for Frogman and watching mayflies and dragonflies stand guard above. We only caught fleeting glimpses. A mysterious ripple here, reeds parting mysteriously over there. I've thought a lot about Frogman since that trip. I think he'd like to come out some nights and get down to some tunes with us humans. As long as the fat little tadpole babies stay safe.
While thinking about Frogman one night, I played some live drums, and some bass, some other sounds. Then Creatures Once partner Monstrosus put down some tasty leads and pads the last time he was in the house. I don't know what Frogman would like to hear on his night's away from Beaver Damn city, but I hope he'd like something like this.
I have some great video of the place, but for now, a gif
