OK, having posted a 'rather stupid post above' I thought I might mention a remberance I liked.

About frogs of course. Little green frogs. Cuties of course.

My mate used to travel to Queensland every year.

One year he came back with a few guests, half a dozen tiny 'bright' green frogs. About 2 cm. in size.

Well, on Christmas Day, I noticed some of these frogs clinging on the kitchen window.

They lived under the 'corregated water thingy' for many, many years...

I LUV little frogs :-)

ETA. After some consideration I have to add I also like BIG Frogs as well .
OK, and also the intermediate sized Frogs as well!

>84 guido47:
When I looked at the photo in 79 I thought to myself, "that has to be fake," so I looked it up on google image search. That photo may be fake, I'm not sure, but there was an another photo which originated the name poodle moth and apparently became something of an internet meme:


This photo does appear to be genuine and of an unidentified species of moth. The name "poodle moth" was coined by it's photographer Arthur Ankur. See his flikr account linked on his name for many other excellent nature photos, especially of insects. The moth I posted in 82 is another from his trip to Venezuela. I do not know if it is an identified species.

Ah the internet, where anything can lead to an hour of wandering research.
