3. White’s tree frog? (just guessing)

4. Looks like dinner with our sons…

   1. 😀

5. When I first saw it, I thought the frog had eaten the insect, then with a slight cut, that the lizard had eaten the frog. Yes, I was up late last night…

6. The insect, reptile, and amphibian are all well camouflaged with the uniform grey background of the webpage*. I don’t see a thing! 🙂

   *As if the link to the graphic is broken.

7. If Baihu was there, he’d eat both the frog and the lizard. The cricket would just be a tasty condiment….

   1. Probably would not keep the frog down though.

      1. That would depend, I’m sure, on the type of frog in question. Whatever variety it is that the French are fond of, I’m sure, he’d stuff himself silly on.

         1. I think even those you need to skin first. Maybe cats are OK with amphibian skins, but lots of creatures don’t do that well trying to digest chemical factories.

            1. A bit of Googling suggests that it’s mostly dinosaurs and reptiles that eat frogs, but also some mammals…and that domestic cats kill them but generally don’t eat them.

               Still, that “generally don’t” suggests that they sometimes do. Knowing Baihu, he’d be more likely to be one of the ones to eat than not to eat. And, if he didn’t like the first one, I don’t think he’d be much interested in catching a second one.

               Why do I think this? The life expectancy of a cricket or grasshopper or the like in his general vicinity is approximately 2.83 seconds. He doesn’t even pay attention to the beetles that live around here, though, when he was much younger, I did see him play with one long enough to get it in his mouth.

               Smart cat….

            2. Are these beetles the big, black, head-standing, stink “bugs”? If so, I can understand why not. Those things are chemical factories in their own right.

            3. These are the ones I was thinking of:

            4. No, they’re fingernail-sized, black (or very dark brown) and with some sort of red marking. A bit of Googling didn’t turn anything up.

               I have plans to make a photographic portrait of one sometime in the coming year, and I’ll be sure to send it to Jerry.

               Cheers,
