This leaning tower of (poisonous?) Piza has got to be ’shopped, Nyx M., but I care not!!!

I love frogs. Especially florescent-colored frogs. Especially when they are stacked on top of each other. Especially…
Oh I just love frogs!

7 alivicwil 04.30.07 at 6:58 am

They’re not poisonous, are they?

No mention of poison here

If its shopped its an excellent job. Maybe 3d render? Anyways, life has to be a challenge with such a blind spot :P

9 Kelli 04.30.07 at 7:08 am

…I really just want this to be real. I love the thought of some nutty photographer stacking tiny frogs. I’m that kind of nutty photographer.

10 Michael 04.30.07 at 7:13 am

Looks real. Check out the square reflections in each frog’s eye. If it’s fake, it’s a really good job.

11 Lakia 04.30.07 at 7:49 am

I’ve had this exact picture on my notice board above my laptop for years. Although my copy is a little faded.

12 Aubrey 04.30.07 at 7:52 am

Those little dudes are forming a tad-totem-pole.

13 fish eye no miko 04.30.07 at 8:00 am

Toad-em pole? (yes, I know they’re frogs).
KAWAII!

14 Molly 04.30.07 at 8:09 am

My favorites are the one in the middle and the one on the very top… It’s like they’re the only ones who realize we’re watching.

15 m u f f y 04.30.07 at 8:22 am

i feel like i licked some of those psychedelic toads and now i’m SEEING these froggies. this pic is too outrageous!!!

16 Stina 04.30.07 at 8:37 am

Its ’shopped. Look at the middle frog and the top frog closely, namely the light reflection in the noses. They’re mirror images of the same frog. Doesn’t make it any less cute tho! =D

17 Subhangi 04.30.07 at 9:09 am

LOL!!! I like Teh Totemfrogs.

18 Julia 04.30.07 at 9:13 am

They actually look kind of plastic to me. But, again, still cute =D

19 BrianMPLS 04.30.07 at 9:31 am

Kelli! I’m an admirer of that kind of photographer! Keep being weird.

20 Tor 04.30.07 at 9:47 am

Matryoshka Frogs!

21 Petal 04.30.07 at 10:48 am

23 miu 04.30.07 at 10:51 am

My log: That dog hogs all the frogs in the bog.

24 Carrie - Hamster Defender, Mac User 04.30.07 at 10:57 am

I don’t think they are shopped.. but then again what do I know.

Adorable (right click) desktop picture!

25 compy-saur 04.30.07 at 11:29 am

These guys are red-eyed tree frogs, and are poison free! (non-poisonous!) :)

26 leah 04.30.07 at 11:35 am

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

28 cutebabyfix.com 04.30.07 at 12:35 pm

On the far-away island of Sala-ma-Sond,
Yog the tree Frog was king of the pond.
A nice little pond. It was clean. It was neat.
The water was warm. There was plenty to eat.
They had everything tree frogs might need.
And they were all happy. Quite happy indeed.

29 miu 04.30.07 at 1:19 pm

CBF:Nice!!

30 M. 04.30.07 at 1:25 pm

Awww… froggies.

31 pkeli 04.30.07 at 1:27 pm

cutebabyfix–Yurtle the Turtle!! I haven’t thought about him in years!!

32 pyrit 04.30.07 at 1:55 pm

Great comments in this thread! Funny Peepers!

33 ali 04.30.07 at 2:03 pm

“i’m not NOT licking toads…”

34 SeaBreeze 04.30.07 at 2:22 pm

“I’m King of the Hill!” “No, I am!” “No, I am!” “No, I am!” “No, I am!” ” Hey, everyone, freeze! There be hoomans afoot!”

35 StormCat 04.30.07 at 2:39 pm

I adore Tree Frogs!!! What makes these even cuter is when you think about the size of them!!! The one on the bottom is small enough, that can you just imagine how teeny the one on top is??? I love their little toses!!!!!

36 Megan 04.30.07 at 2:45 pm

Aw, darn, someone beat me to the Yurtle the Turtle comment… :)

37 jen 04.30.07 at 2:57 pm

wow what a great shot.

38 Gal josefsberg 04.30.07 at 4:58 pm

That’s an incredible photo. Thanks for posting it. Not quite the usual thing you post here, but definitely worth a look, plus the caption is cute :)

Five green and speckled frogs
Sat on a speckled log
Eating the most delicious bugs
(Yum Yum)
One jumped into the pool
Where it was nice and cool
Now there are four green speckled frogs

Four green and speckled frogs…

40 Shannon Johnson 04.30.07 at 6:11 pm

That is so funny. I never seen anything like that before.

41 Chels 04.30.07 at 6:15 pm

These are Red-Eyed Tree Frogs and no, they are not at all poisonous or even toxic. They’re cuties!

42 heidilynn 04.30.07 at 6:23 pm

OK, someone already made the Yurtle the Turtle comment…but what these guys really reminded me of was “Little Cat’s A, B and C” and so on from The Cat in the Hat Comes Back. But no hat.

43 garfield 04.30.07 at 7:15 pm

That might not be shopped… there’s more today: http://www.spiegel.de/fotostrecke/0,5538,PB64-SUQ9MjExNzgmbnI9NQ_3_3,00.html

They seem to enjoy mating-season :D

44 Hazel 04.30.07 at 7:26 pm

That is not Shopped… I repeat… NOT Shopped!

Middle frog is entirely different to top frog… top frog is holding its posh pinky out… middle frog is gripping tight with all digits!

But frogs are most adorable, whether shopped or not…

45 Calicogypsy 04.30.07 at 9:13 pm

Red Eyed tree frogs aren’t toxic. You’re thinking of posion dart frogs, and that’s only if they come from the wild. Captive bred dart frogs aren’t posionus either. It’s a certain bug they eat in the wild that make them posionus.

46 A thinker 04.30.07 at 9:34 pm

Won-der-ful.

47 equus 04.30.07 at 9:53 pm

Um, can we talk about rule #12 please?
Yeah frogs!

48 my cat is a sphere 05.01.07 at 2:41 am

I lurf them.
Lurf lurf lurf them.
I used to find miniature toads in the yard when I was little, they were like toads that belonged in a doll house, tiny tiny perfect miniatures of large toads.
Sigh. Lurf them all!

49 Tor 05.01.07 at 2:48 am

garfield–5’s company, but 60 quillion is a little bit creeping me out!

50 Positive Jube 05.01.07 at 9:30 am

Big froggie totally smilin’!

51 equus 05.02.07 at 12:54 am

Erhem *cough* rule # 7. And rule #9. conspicuous LACK of fluff and floppy limbs.

52 Golden 05.02.07 at 1:01 am

Okay.. there’s a tv commercial out there .. where one frog crawls up on the other one, making the bottom one fall backwards while holding onto a branch.. It’s hilarious!! I wish I remembered what the commercial was for now!

53 Caitlin 05.02.07 at 1:32 am

RULE NUMBER SEVENNNNNNN

54 Nyx M. 05.03.07 at 3:13 am

’shopped or not, just like you, I thought it was way too cute to pass up! Thanks for posting it.

55 Neige 05.03.07 at 3:15 am

I do not think it’s photoshopped, but either way, I love it! Each frogs has a different expression :D Awesome.

56 Sunflower 05.17.07 at 6:04 pm

<3! I love frogs, and these are so tiny! My brain can't handle the cuteness!

57 Hannah 05.20.07 at 4:50 pm

These are red-eyed tree frogs. Native to Belize. Not poisonous, but oh so cute. their undersides are really perdy!

58 Sydney 06.04.07 at 1:52 pm

Wow what a weird site.

59 Fitz 06.06.07 at 4:47 pm

Biologist friends of mine are extremely skeptical of the verisimilitude of this picture. They reasoned that a clutch (frog litter) would be of more similar sizes and that “growed up” frogs don’t stick around long enough for the next clutch. Frogs ain’t into family. If anyone can counter this argument I’d be glad to hear it since I got flack for showing it to them.

60 GW2 06.12.07 at 11:11 pm

Um, Hi. This is a photoshop.

61 Theo 06.12.07 at 11:34 pm

Um, OK. Since you say so.
