On the Shores of Lake Wanaka there’s a man made pond/lake where thousands of frogs have taken over. – This is the Southern Bell Frog. Note the Insect in the top right. The frog would stay really still, and when the insect got close enough, wham – they had it. So fast I never did catch it on camera! South Island, New Zealand

Great image of this frog Robyn – that insect should be warned of the lurking danger……! Would it be possible to put the camera on video and shoot a sequence hoping it will grab the insect and take the appropriate frame out as a still ?
I have no idea how this could be done – but anything is possible I’’m sure :)

I love how it looks like it’s suspended in air. And you should feel lucky to have them. They are fast disappearing everywhere….
yes this is true :) Don’t see many down here either :)
