There are zillions and zillions of birds out there in the wild and almost as many pictures of birds for us to put on this list. But how about a picture that is one hundred percent patootie? This bird – we’re not sure what kind it is – was going into the water for a snack of fish when someone took a pic from behind, catching the bird’s bad side in a big way.
We could barely even tell it was a bird at first. Of course, it was probably a great time for a pic immediately before and after this moment.
I Could Just Eat You Up
Try not to stare for too long – these two iguanas are getting a little cozy, so let's give them the privacy they deserve. We aren't sure why Mr. Iguana is chewing on the back of the Missus, but maybe that's just something that happens in the heat of the moment. Who knows, maybe it's an iguana-specific feature.
Well, we should probably get going. We're getting the stink-eye from both of these beasts, and the look from the mister seems a little frustrated. Don't mind us folks, just passing through. Maybe next time, don't do it right next to the pool.
Jumped by the Paparazzi
None of us like to be surprised that much unless it's for, like, free donuts or something similar. Being surprised by someone who has a camera is even worse than a normal surprise, and this big green heron is responding in kind. Quite the expressive fellow, isn't he?
He looks pretty big, too, however, green herons actually only grow up to between sixteen and eighteen inches and come in at a max weight of about six ounces. Birds have to be pretty light if they want to be able to fly. Nice way to get away from cameras, it seems.
Making a Break for It
He's trying to make a getaway, but obviously, it's going to take him a while. We all know slugs as one of the slower creatures of the animal kingdom relative to their size. In fact, slugs are some of the slowest creatures on Earth, able to move just six and a half inches per minute. We guess that's what happens if you only have one foot. And one lung. And no spine.
Still, at least they leave that cool little trail behind them, so you see exactly where they've been. This single picture looks like a few hours of work for the subject.
So That's Where the Name Comes From
Yes, believe it or not, real frogs do actually play leapfrog. You might think that's obvious, but there is tons of misinformation out there about what animals do and don't do. Did you know that vultures don't sit around asking each other what they want to do all the time?
However, we doubt that these frogs actually got together to have real fun – we assume that they were all just taking a quick kip on the same log, and then one of them decided to move on. It's a pretty good action shot, all things considered, and we like the colors, too.
