Thank you for the set, Azrael!

It's so weird to call them edible frogs.

Like calling pheasants "edible birds" or catfish "edible fish". xD

I saw several enormous bullfrogs yesterday. I attempted to catch one and actually got it on hook and line, but it managed to pull itself off before I could grab it, as it never got hooked, it just bit the line. It must have been 2 pounds.

He's lucky he got away, as I was really considering bringing home a few and eating them, since I had such poor luck with fishing and frogs are legal game and apparently fairly tasty. But alas, my luck frog-hunting (for big enough ones anyway) sucked too.

You fish the frog???? Here when we want to catch the edible frogs. We SPEAR them!!! >:)

However, buy some at the fresh market is somewhat easier. xD


BTW, a young house gecko I found earlier have settled behind the book shelf! I am gonna have new gecko to replace Old One!

That's great JMT! House geckoes sound very neat.

And yes, I "fish the frog". It's easier.. or, in theory it is. I didn't actually catch any big ones.

Regardless it's less violent. xD

Saved 3 leopard frogs and 6 American toads from my house's egress door yesterday.

Also caught a grey tree frog, but I felt that it won't survive with another grey tree frog I'm keeping as a pet, so I released it today.

Well winter's coming fast here, so the herps are going away, but the other day out at the tennis courts at my school, I saw a Western Fence Lizard that was like seven inches long.

I found a hatchling garter snake dead in an old fishtank in the garage. It fell in and couldn't get out. :<

Poor thing... It was so unlucky.

I think a Tokay Gecko has moved into my village, since I start to hear its croak, not sure where.

The Anura army decided to retreat until winter passes. So sadly, none for a while. :(

Just found these two little buggers yesterday in my father's bed room. I then released them in my back yard.

Just found the biggest Common toad I've ever seen under my pool. It must have been trying to escape our cold and rainy weather.
