Title: Giant Frog! Post by Dave on 10/01/14 at 04:59:13 Last night I went for a ride around the block just after dark. I had been cutting down dead Ash trees all evening and put the tools away just before I ran out of all daylight, and I needed a ride before I went into the house. About a mile from my house I saw a "huge" green bullfrog on the road, and I turned around to chase it off the road. I parked my bike on the sidestand with the engine running, and the headlight shining toward the frog. I guess the combination of the headlight and idling engine was like a sedative to the frog - I reached down and picked it up, carried it over to the side of the road, and set it down in a field. The thing didn't move a muscle! I experience the same thing when I mow around my pond with the push mower or weed wacker during the daytime. The sound of the engine seems to lull the frogs into a trance.....I can reach down and pick them up....they don't move! It really makes it hard to mow without killing any frogs hiding in the long grass. |

Title: Re: Giant Frog! Post by stinger on 10/02/14 at 15:13:38 Maybe it's the rainy weather here in the North West that makes our frogs so huge. Your frogs Dave are tiny compared to ours. This is a common sight while riding in Oregon. http://jokesfb.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Frog-Ride-A-Bike-263x300.jpg |
