    My cat used to bring these into the house in her mouth. She looked very strange with just the legs dangling out. Did you know that when frogs are scared they lie on their backs with their front legs over their eyes. (Well the ones Polly brought in did!)

    I'm inventing a new phrase "cute as a frog" :D

    Theyre so compact and have incredibly cute bellies! Awwww!

    Jay, may I ask what you mean when you say they have "incredibly cute bellies"?
    On a slightly more serious note... in what way do frogs bring benefit to our gardens, not only the cute bellies and the ability to hide their eyes when they go to a scary movie at the cinema but the insects they happily devour and... everything else...
    Kind regards
    Roy
