LAZY FROG

KICKING back and relaxing with his arms outstretched, this chilled-out frog appears to be loving life as he takes some time out on a water lily leaf. The little frog is pictured happily perched with his legs stretched out in front of him and enjoying a bit of ‘me’ time. The funny photographs were taken by photographer Angela Nelson, 45, in her home town of Bristol. ‘I found the frog sitting in this unusual position a few times; I took photographs as I had never seen a frog sit like this in ten years of keeping them as pets,’ said Angela.
