Click on this frog for a brief overview of our sites. This frog is a coqui, which like me is 100 per cent Puerto Rican. Like the Southern Bob White, it screams its name. I adapted this design from an aboriginal engraving found at the Taino ceremonial mounds in Utuado, the birthplace of the Mendez side of my family.
