frog pond

Croaking creature habitat

A frog pond is a small body of water where frogs breed and live, typically shallow and stagnant enough to support tadpole development.

The term often evokes a pastoral or backyard setting: We could hear the frog pond from the porch on summer nights.

Figuratively, a frog pond can mean a small, insular community or sphere of influence—being a big frog in a small pond.
