The snake n frog trapeze. Was sitting at home and I heard a call, got puzzled cuz it sounded like a bird’s but was new to me. Went to investigate what the hullabaloo was all about and this was what I found on the nutmeg tree in our premises. It was the frog’s cry. Taken long back in June 2002 (Camera: Sony DSC P 31).

Good captuer this one.
Where is the nutmeg tree?

aaaaaaaa……. snakes????????? me scared of them *run as fast as i can*
Well, like I said, I am hungry. I would want to share whatever I eat with you. Maaaaaaaaaybe the tree of knowledge was a nutmeg tree and not an apple tree after all. 😀
hmmm.. now you want to hunt down the snake! ohhh!!
Or you conspiring to give me half eaten fruits from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil
but this tree is just a nutmeg tree 
Yes, it is a frog, its hind legs are clawed to the other branch. The snake is actually small, just that it appears bigger in the picture.
Woah! reminds me of Anaconda! But, is that really a frog, sweetheart? Difficult to make out. That snake is one darn beautiful one- reminds me of marble cake too 😀 ( Cake with a mix of vanilla and chocolate flavor)…might be I am hungry too…hehe
