The Turtle frog (Myobatrachus gouldii) looks like a turtle that lost its shell 🙂
I think I’ll have to stop for now (I could go on for quite a while: Colourful frogs! Poisonous frogs! Shovel-nosed frogs! Striped frogs! Aquatic frogs! Burrowing frogs! Tiny frogs! Giant frogs! Frogs frogs frogs frogs frogs!).
Don’t forget to take a look at the last post about the most bad-ass of all frogs: the Hairy or Horror frog (Trichobatrachus robustus), also known as the Wolverine of the amphibian world 🙂
fun fact my cat & i are both blind so we accidentally run into each other sometimes, but bc im much louder than he is, when we get close to each other he chirps to warn me he’s there
Got a text from my neighbor down the road that a chicken has been seen hanging around their driveway for the past few days. I just spent a good twenty minutes stomping around in a treeline, in the dark, hoping to rustle something up, but found nothing. I plan to check the area in the daytime tomorrow though.
I hope they don’t freeze. Or get eaten. But they’ve survived this long so I hope their luck will hold. I hate knowing that a little hen or rooster is out there all alone.
This just happened to me recently (you can see the original post, if you want, on my blog). I came across a scraggly hen laying in the ditch next to a fairly busy road. No idea where she came from or how she got there, but we’re taking care of her now.
Try putting out a chicken shelter. Put a rubbermaid or box on its side with some straw inside, a bowl of water, and some chicken feed, see if that draws it in.
