September 17, 2008: Bullfrog vs Sparrow - Page 2

FStop · 09-18-2008, 02:24 PM

I never thought about stuff like this happening. Who would figure, right?

However, I'm not surprised. Almost in the same vein as a snake eating an egg. Looks a bit like that.

Um, hello? Gross? I HATE these creepy-crawly, slimey, jumping things! (no offense, O Great 'Toad) It distresses me to see a cute, fluffy animal get eaten by a horrid, slimey, reptilian one. It doesn't seem fair, somehow. In an evolutionary sort of way, the cute should survive and the yucky be damned.

Also---if you do eat frogs' legs, aren't you obliged to fit said frog up with a mini wheelchair? Seems like a lot to go thru just to eat some gross shite.

That ain't no sparrow, to the Frog .... that's just the BEST, finger-licking, Southern fried chicken ... as evidenced by the last frame ......

...and that completes stage four of our special dinner tonight, Doberman stuffed with Duck stuffed with Bullfrog stuffed with Sparrow stuffed with Dragonfly stuffed with Mosquito. All stuffings as nature intended.

Hey! Anyone else see the bait scattered around on those leaves to sucker that poor bird in?

BigV · 09-23-2008, 11:14 AM

Good observation! Looks like cornbread.

HungLikeJesus · 09-23-2008, 11:16 AM

Where does a toad get cornbread?

He pulled it off the table when he took his damn legs back... GO FROG!!!

hi all,

im sure the only person who knows 100% for sure how this photo series came about is the photographer, but i have noticed this:

1. i agree that there seems to be bird-bait of some kind present in the first image.
2. the (unposted, but still present on the server) image frogsparrow3.jpg (http://cellar.org/2008/frogsparrow3.jpg) seems to show a sparrow in flight away from the toad (or frog, im not sure).

draw your own conclusions, but it seems odd to me.
