Someone loses an eye!
This little chorus frog (no bigger than a few centimeters) saw me coming while on my search for short-horned lizards and fearing that I might be a predator, headed straight for cover by hopping into a cluster of prickly pear cactus plants. Flirting with disaster, it easily maneuvered itself between the spikes in a perfect defense strategy for most would be predators. I quickly snapped off this photo and then left it be so that it could carefully extract itself from the precarious situation.

Those are some mighty big thorns! Great photo, thank you, as always.
Ya, big enough the frog could have been completely skewered by them! Your very welcome. Thanks for your continued interest and for stopping by to comment! 🙂
