Pool or Marsh

I have recently been travelling through France and stopped in the Brenne area to visit a few ponds, I have to admit that some of the frog species leave me scratching my head for an ID and I generally just think they are Marsh frogs. Could some of these be something else?

They look more like pool frogs to me, possibly edible, but not so much like marsh frogs.

Agreed but I'm never sure with pictures only.

Looks like a return trip is in order, thanks.

A spotted throat is unusual for a Pool Frog and the skin looks a bit too granular to be one. But as with all water frogs (and as stated by others); its hard to tell from pictures.
