friday's fringe 35 ~ Orb Assault!

while squatting to get this shot of the Banana spider (Golden silk orb-weaver)...

i realized how it looked pretty cool with that monstrous Orb

descending on our roof!

ARACHNID ATTACK!

Spider Invasion!

and for those of you who get a little creeped out by spiders...

here's a view of the morning crescent moon from the backyard.

friday's fringe 34 ~ barking at the moon

while trimming back some dead palmetto leaves

we spotted the largest tree frog i've ever seen...

a Barking Treefrog.

you probably won't mistake their bark for the neighbor's dog...

sounds kind of like a smallish dog with a sore throat!

"Time's fun when you're having flies"

~Kermit the Frog

(this next shot makes me think of the commercial "Got Milk?")  woof.

Barking Treefrog/Hyla Gratiosa

although they usually do most of their barking at night,

we saw this one during the day.

he didn't bark at us...

OR the moon.

but he could have!

the moon framed by the trees at 7:30AM  on the 1st of december
