Yeah... I know. Frogs don't have souls.
So... sue me. *grin*

This guy hopped off the table while I was rearranging the light. I saw him hop off, but knew he couldn't really go anywhere, the dogs were outside... so I let him hop until I fixed things up.
Well, he hopped into the little pantry-like room next door. Still I didn't worry, just went to get him in the corner next to some cabinetry.
I reached for him.
He jumped up and over the baseboard and into the unreachable space under the cabinet.
The INSTALLED cabinet. That can't be moved.
*sigh*
I didn't actually NEED him for this challenge, had just found him, so was going to use him.
But, I couldn't leave him there to die.
*sigh*
*sigh again*
I got tools, took off the toe-kick moulding, then the fascia board... took the nails out of the toe-kick moulding and used it to force him out of the narrow space between the cabinet and the wall.
That frog.
*sigh*
Anyway, he sat very still for me... until he decided he'd had enough, and suddenly hopped off again.
I figured I'd gotten a decent shot and let him go outside again.
Merry Christmas, Little Frog.
Be thankful that your photographer is kind and didn't leave you to die behind the wall.
*sigh*
I wouldn't do that, but HE didn't know that.
*sigh again*

| A lower perspective would have really made this shot. Not a fan of looking down on wildlife shots. |

| One of my favorites to ribbon. Nice detail in the eye and a good title to play up the image. |

| I'm not sure the reflection of the window added much for me. (I didn't even notice until I came back to comment.) But I just love the close up of this creature. Love the slime! |
