There's a frog in my lettuce!

This afternoon, I was looking in the garden boxes on our veranda (patio, deck, balcony...whichever word you prefer) and noticed the little green frog that I had seen a couple of days earlier was still there, and today he was sitting on a lettuce leaf. It's not surprising at all that there are a lot of frogs around here because there's a rice field RIGHT next to our apartment. What DOES surprise me is that this very small frog got all the way up to our second-floor apartment balcony and crawled over the tall plastic wall to get into our garden boxes. If he eats some of the ugly little caterpillars and bugs that killed my bok choy, he's welcome to stay.
