heavenly days! My neice maintains that she saw a bullfrog catch and eat a sparrow in her pond! This is the same neice who has a segmented plastic alligator in her pond to keep away the pteradactyls (herons). lol.

Remember that cartoon (think it was Warner Bros.) that we watched as kids with the singing frog!? Haven't thought of that in years...thanks for the laughs.

Oh No, Lori - THAT bloody frog! Now, you've gone and done it! I 've been "seeing" and singing the song for days now. This is my version:-

Goodbye my Baby, Goodbye my Honey, Goodbye my Ragtime Gal!
If you release me, Honey, you'd please me, now gonna be a pal?
I'll send you an e-mail (quicker than water snail), water don't mix with wire.
So, Goodbye my Baby, Goodbye, my Honey, (Sh**! This is getting dire).

closing shot of frog disappearing down hole cut by saw (for me) lol!

Still love this pic, Fl!

I've never seen a bullfrog with those markings. He is lovely. My bullfrogs prefer toeat each other, rather than my fish. I'll never forget a morning last summer when I did a double take to see legs hanging out of one of my bullfrogs mouth. I didn't know they were cannibals!

17 Aug, 2008

 

Good Lord...!!..lol. I would have been doing a double take too, to say the least...hahaha. How freaky, I'll definitely be paying closer attention to the frogs from now on....lol. I didn't know they were cannibals either. You learn something new everyday...!

My neice maintains that she saw a bullfrog eat a sparrow who was trying to drink from their pond!!

You guys are starting to scare me now...lol. Lisa your were saying frogs didn't eat your fish, well I found somthing else though that will. I thought the only thing I had to worry about were the egrets and herons getting my fish, until a few weeks ago. I went out to feed the fish and caught a glimse of something slithering away, then I heard something flopping on the rocks, it was one of my fish...! I ran and picked it up and threw it back in the pond. A snake had snagged one of my larger fish for dinner and dragged it into the flowerbed to devour it when I apparantly spooked it. The fish was missing few scales, but other than that, it's doing fine ! I'm beginning the think these poor fish have the deck stacked against them. I noticed yesterday that we have a smaller fish missing now, and we are wondering if that snake came back for a second try. Hubby put a B-B gun at the end of the porch just incase we see it again, but the odds of our hitting it, or even scaring it off for good, are slim to none !

What And you still live in the same place..............i would have been out of there and gone lol

17 Aug, 2008

 

well if the fish survived the snake wasn't venomous...so that's a plus...but sheesh...poor fish, must be a bummer being on the bottom of the food chain!!!

17 Aug, 2008

 

I'd have to move across the pond Buffiddler, There isn't any place in the States doesn't have snakes...seen any good real estate lately...?
Yea Lori, it would stink...! Though I have had days when I could have sworn I was scrapping the bottom of the barrel myself...lol.

17 Aug, 2008

 

LOL... I do too!! I often feel like the very smallest fish!! You'd have to go to Ireland to get away from snakes!! The green and blessed Isle!!
