IF Poise


A frog is always poised....to JUMP! Though this one seems pretty content to sit.Spring is just around the corner. I'm waiting to hear the spring peepers.

I love his expression!! Looks as if he was taking a little dip in his froggy hot tub and has just had an unwelcomed intruder. :)

Great art!

Terrific! Love the expression on his face, though wouldn't want one in my soup, or landing in my lap, for that matter!

Oh I like this!!
Since he's way too big not to notice I know he won't get eaten... So he must be enjoying the soaking!!
