They may be able to kill you, but man are they pretty.

Well, maybe these ones won't kill you, as 'Poisson Dart Arrow' frogs which are bred here lose their toxins. Anyway, took a trip to DC this weekend to visit out the new National Geographic frog exhibit. Heres a few shots of the dart frogs, along with some others:

That first one I quoted is a Ornate Horn Frog...or "pacman frog" (all mouth :rofl) Those guys get the size of salad plates and eat small mice. That's what I fed mine sometimes...that and goldfish.

The second....I thats a dumpy tree frog. Really sweet shot.

I use to work at petsmart...lol Thanks for bringing me back! :thumb

Thank you for the queet!

However, the second shot is of a waxy monkey frog. I have a few shots(that, the first shot, and a few more in my gallery) if you want to check him out some more.

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. The frog in number 1 and 3(waxy monkey frog) is a very cool guy. He seems to have no problem sitting still and posing for the camera. I plan on purchasing one of those along with the poison dart frogs to allow me to get better pictures.

[riddim_maker]

Very interesting subjects and well captured:clap :clap :clap
