This big old female green tree frog has made the bathroom her daytime retreat- one of the joys of country living. Each night we have to make room for her as she finds her way out onto the verandah to feast on any passing insects that come her way. I lock her out nightly but miraculously each morning she is back on the shelf hiding amongst the bottle collection. I am reminded of Queensland writer, Frank Moffat and his great children's book, "Farmer Bean and the Pantry Frog" published around 1985 enjoyed with many students during my years in the classroom. From experience, trying to rid yourself of a live-in frog is an impossibility you may as well simply learn to live with them.
That is just beautiful! I love the green frogs up north (I live in the south) And I love your story about the frog- glad you are learning to live with it :) I shall follow you now. Fav
this is just way too cool - lived in Hawaii for several years and we had geckos that used to sneak in the house and did not realize how much I missed that until I saw this pic - FAV and thanks for bringing such a cool memory back in my head tonight :)
Great story and a great shot Margaret. We don't get green frogs anymore so we substituted a very lifelike model of one that lives on the toilet window sill
