30 Adorable Frog Pictures By Ajar Setiadi That He Took Near His House
Indonesian wildlife photographer Ajar Setiadi takes photos of frogs that live near his home in Bogor, Indonesia. Images of him reveal the fascinating behavior of these colorful animals. Setiadi treats the animals like pets, letting them play in his garden while he turns on his camera to capture these special pictures. According to the photographer himself, capturing these little moments on camera feels like a tiny miracle.
In one image, a frog in the rain holds a leaf like an umbrella; in another one of his pictures, you can see two frogs appear to be dancing together. However, there is one image in particular that stands out as the most charming: Setiadi managed to capture two huddled frogs while they were hiding from the rain under an umbrella of flowers. Frogs are social creatures and this emotional image resembles a couple in love or two friends who care for each other during a storm.

Is she coming? Is she going to come. I saved this flower just for her and the show is about to start.
Begining of leapfrog. First rule: going over the rules of the game.
"I've just known I'm a snail in a frog's body, every since I was a tadpole".
The deep purple of the plant makes the feet’s color just that much more vibrant
“Here, let me show you how it’s done” while junior sighs, looks down, and mutters “I know Dad, I know!”
Sorry to burst the bubble, but most of these shots are probably staged, and caused harm to the frogs. In photos like these - where frogs seem to be behaving in a way not natural to them - they have probably been glued to objects/other animals, held up by wires/hooks, etc (look at number 25 again, you can can see they’re held up by hooks around their hands/wrists). In shots with their mouths wide open…usually this only seen when the frog is in much distress (like being eaten by a snake). At the very least, the frogs have often been roughly handled and traumatised to get them in the ‘right’ position. Some of these frogs may even be dead.
Yeah, I don't think these frogs are ok - they don't sit up on their pelvises to relax like humans do
