Poor frogs. On the menu of so many larger creatures, including those below.

Frogs are not on the routine diet of this fellow either, but I'm not sure he'd pass one up given an opportunity.

This Coucal will certainly take frog. It has been known to take Chameleons as well. Unusual to see one of these on the road like this. They usually skulk around in bushes. One of the first images accepted on PPG-many moons ago now.

Assorted sizes of elephants (or is it better to say "Elephants of assorted sizes?")

Northern shovelers and a scaup, hardly match the brilliance of the bee-eater, but handsome none the less

Another of the pair of Fish Eagles from my trip to Kruger October last year. Have a few, so they'll be making another appearance here.

I think this is a Slender Mongoose, though it could be a Yellow Mongoose

A blurry image of a giant river otter, obviously in a zoo. They were in deep shade, and as otters will be, never still for an instant, zipping back and forth through the water.
