Absolutely gorgeous - worthy of framing
I also love the utilitarian title - you kept the beauty for the actual photos :)

Clodfobble 03-29-2007 07:59 AM

I'd like to see a picture of a person swimming in that many baby humans...

elSicomoro 03-29-2007 08:00 AM

I smell a photoshop coming. Too bad Ike Is My Cat doesn't post anymore...his photoshops were legendary.

TheMercenary 03-29-2007 08:23 AM

Our place is swamped in tree frogs. This is evidence of thier passing in the morning.

jinx 03-30-2007 09:26 AM

That's really cool Merc. Do you have any pics of the frogs themselves?

Sundae 03-30-2007 09:28 AM

Wow - I only got a red cross last time, glad I've seen the picture.

Frog Army Knife?

TheMercenary 03-30-2007 12:12 PM

I will try to post some pics after work on Sunday. All of them are green and brown about the size of a half-dollar coin, slimey. At night the sound is so loud you almost can't hear yourself talk.

Flint 03-30-2007 12:16 PM

I grew up next to a creek. I love that sound, of noisy things that live in wet places.

jinx 03-30-2007 12:21 PM

I took video also, when I took these pics, just for the sound. Jim is still trying to get it off the camera though - might not happen. :(

Flint 03-30-2007 12:23 PM

When I was growing up, the creek would be filled with little frog eggs. Now, I never see them. What happened to my frogs?

glatt 03-30-2007 12:37 PM

Maybe acid rain.

When I was a kid, we had a creek in our back yard too. No frogs for some reason, but toads. We used to catch the eggs and watch the polliwogs hatch. On time, one of my dad's students was over visiting. He was a wealthy Iranian with ties to the Shah, who was in power then. Anyway, he wore expensive clothes. Nice guy. Very friendly. I had caught a bunch of polliwogs in the cooler we kept on our back steps for the milk delivery, and was carrying it over to him to show him. Somehow I tripped or something, and I dumped most of this cooler full of scummy water and toad eggs and polliwogs all over his pants and expensive shoes. That was the only time I ever saw him mad, but he soon recovered. And was nice again. He heads an oil exploration company now.

Frogs all over the world are dieing off in huge numbers. Of course both the greenies and the global warmers were all over it, and very disappointed to find it was a virus.

DucksNuts 03-31-2007 02:50 AM

Ohhh that rocks!! I wanna live in Philly now!!

xoxoxoBruce 04-01-2007 01:32 PM

C'mon over, just don't bring any cane toads.

DucksNuts 04-01-2007 08:54 PM

Evil bastards they are!!!

There was one found last week the size of a mans head!

DucksNuts 04-01-2007 08:56 PM

I should clarify.....not like...LJ's size head or anything, more like Bippy's :)

zippyt 04-01-2007 10:32 PM

more like Bippy's

Hold up there Missy !!!!
Jinx said " think like the Nappa hats ontop of those pickup trucks "when talking about LJ's head ,
Damn it!!!! I Can't find a pic !!!!!!
just think what size hat would contain Lj's whit ,wisdom ,and EGO !!!!!
Here is a hint , if I put a 5 gallon bucket over my head it goes to my sholders , can LJ say the same ?????

DucksNuts 04-02-2007 01:04 AM

Sweety, thats what I was meaning...not a fucken monster size toad...like LJ's head, but more delicate and cute like yours!!!!

*dig, dig, dig, dig*

zippyt 04-02-2007 01:19 AM

lumberjim 04-13-2007 11:51 AM

DanaC 04-13-2007 12:02 PM

I would never mock Lj's head. He just needs to remember to use just the lips and not so much teeth. hehehe

glatt 05-06-2007 09:07 AM

Keep them coming. I love these pics.

jinx 05-07-2007 12:37 PM

Thanks glatt, I definitely plan to... as long as the tads keep cooperating.

jinx 05-08-2007 04:31 PM

If you look in the muck here where I'm looking you can see white globs. Anyone know what these are?

http://pic20.picturetrail.com/VOL162.../251269864.jpg

I was checking out the clear globs, that I at first thought were the old tadpole eggs, but on closer inspection realized that some still have something growing inside: Spotted Salamanders.

Some have hatched but I couldn't find them

DucksNuts 05-09-2007 05:31 AM

They are fantastic, Jinx.

Kinda spoiled the illusion for me though, here I thought you had trekked out to a isolated little pond....and then I see civilisation in the background.

jinx 05-09-2007 10:03 AM

Aw, sorry ducks, lol.... it's just a puddle, not remote pond.
Normally we do trek around for miles when we're there (French Creek), but we hadn't planned on being there at all yesterday.

Griff 05-09-2007 10:05 AM

You do realize you're on the hook for the full life-cycle of these guys now?

jinx 05-09-2007 10:14 AM

That's the plan... it's a home school project for the boy. He got it in his head yesterday that they might have sprouted legs and scarfered, so we had to stop by and make sure there weren't any significant changes since Saturday.

Griff 05-09-2007 10:20 AM

How awesome a Mom are you?:)

jinx 05-09-2007 10:27 AM

:blush:

(I enjoy it as much as they do though)

The secret to a happy life. Don't bother with the unnecessary modesty though. It is a great prize, revel in it!

How delightful!!

It's a hell of a job keeping three kids in line. Especially the big one.

jinx 05-18-2007 08:13 PM

No changes really... but I liked these pics

Home School? No more Upatinas? How's it going?

/could never do it, would kill offspring and eat them
