Something that always amuses me about walking along the side of a highway is how the animals stare at you.
And other things. :)

I am so thick. I didn't even get the neighbourly reference. Now I get it. Me best not come tonight since I'll be away from my beloved for a couple of nights over this weekend.

The way things are shaping up, the next 5 days will be more sociable than the last 300. I'm kind of wondering if I'll cope. You've all turned me into a socialist.
Bloody peer group pressure.
Oh, did I mean socialite? Oops.

Socialites are supposed to be ditzy. If in doubt, ask, "What would Paris Hilton do?" ;-)

NASA makes a capture to put all others in the shade. (warning: large file)

One little frog on a lilypad. Less than two centimetres long.

Aaaaaaawwww, thank you!
Now if you don't mind the croaking - and to me it's the perfect aural ambience for a balmy evening - you have some happy times ahead. -

You should call him Brett. Just sayin'.

Someone posted that on Twitter earlier. Awesome, eh? Would be great projected onto a wall, I thought.

It's a big picture. But compared with the subject, still kinda infinitesimal. ;-)

Wonderful capture - just as Hilary's frog is wonderful, the small writ large (and as Joe says, it's voice will enhance lives for quite some time to come...)

Heart Earth...
It’s a big picture.
We live within such a thin blue layer...

Compared to those early lords of creation the Cyanobacteria, we're rank amateurs. But it's an ill wind that blows no species any good. as the oxygen we're so keen on was once their toxic waste product.

Because a majority of us *just dont know how fragile our lovely Papatuanuku/Gaia
is, for our life-form (let alone all the others!)*We think we are forever.
Bloody hell, NOT.

Tonight's cold front. I do love Canterbury skies.

Far from balmy here in Wellington tonight. The garden furniture has already taken off and I fear for my newly-planted swan plants which are bent double. Plants have been known to blow out of the ground in Wellington winds. Some weird golden clouds are scuddering across the sky. I hope the little Brets survive the gales.

Go the Brets! It’s a shame they’re such a rarity now. I remember when I was a kid, raising tadpoles was quite the norm.
You might like this recent discovery: a very small frog.

Phew, on first glance I thought we had become a moon of Jupiter...

I wish I could disagree with you, but no, you're absolutely right.
I once showed my students "The Vertical Limit" and asked them what it was about. They said, "It shows nature is our enemy and we must fight nature!" Bloody hell! And this in the country that invented Taoism and it's wuwei, non-action, go with the natural order philosophy!
Where on earth did this hubris come from, and where is it going to take us?
I suppose on the plus side here in Beijing we'll soon be getting a network of charging stations for electric cars, we're supposed to get cleaner petrol by the end of the year, and the government asked us to not set off quite so many fireworks this CNY to help protect the air... too little, too late?
