one of my favourite memories of my old cat Fluffy, who was our family pet for 16 years and was the best, biggest, brashest, boldest orange and white cat ever, was of the day he found a toad in our backyard. He was so intensely curious about that toad, who was old and fat and couldn't get away really quickly. Fluffy chased that toad all around the yard, gently batting it in the behind to make it jump forward. It was really funny to watch, even though he was definitely tormenting that poor toad. Eventually the dinner bell rang and Fluffy came back to the house, and the toad was, I"m sure, very relieved.
thanks for resurrecting that great old memory for me.

You must be incredibly patient to be able to shoot these kind of pics. Wow.
i think the patience of the frog was the bigger factor....
