El sapo de caña (Rhinella marina), también conocido como sapo neotropical gigante o sapo marino, es una especie de anfibio anuro, de la familia Bufonidae. Es grande y terrestre, nativo de Centroamérica y Sudamérica. Es un miembro del género Rhinella, el cual incluye decenas de diferentes especies de sapos en diferentes hábitats en América. Está incluida en la lista 100 de las especies exóticas invasoras más dañinas del mundo3 de la Unión Internacional para la Conservación de la Naturaleza.
El sapo de caña es un reproductor prolífico; las hembras depositan un solo grupo, desovando un gran número de huevos. Su éxito reproductor es en parte debido al alimento oportuno: tienen una dieta, rara entre los Anuros, de ambas, materia viva y muerta. Los adultos tienen una longitud promedio de 10 a 15 cm; el espécimen más grande registrado pesó 2,65 kg y alcanzó 38 cm desde el hocico hasta la cloaca.
Tiene grandes glándulas venenosas, y los adultos y renacuajos al ser ingeridos son altamente tóxicos para la mayoría de los animales. Dado su voraz apetito, el sapo de caña se ha introducido en muchas regiones de islas Pacíficas y Caribeñas como un método agrícola de control de plagas, notablemente en el caso de Australia en 1935, y deriva su nombre común de su uso contra las plagas de la caña de azúcar. El propio sapo de caña es ahora considerado una plaga en muchas de sus regiones introducidas, ya que el tóxico de su piel mata a los depredadores nativos cuando es comido.

For some reason, it hadn't occurred to me to shoot video with my FZ50 and Raynox 250 macro lens attached. This was my first try at bug cinema. Not edge-of-seat fascinating unless, of course, you're another bug. But I thought I'd upload it for posterity until that time when I create some more captivating Raynox vids.
Anyone know this particular insect? Possibly a hoverfly -- Melanostoma scalare I like the pollen covered face and legs.

MICRO
Even the most complex organisms on Earth are made up of simple cells. Inspired by Life, this design utilises the idea of simple building blocks (made up of OLED strips and cylindrical holders) to create shapes of various complexities and styles. Whether you want to create a perfect reading lair, decorate your living space or create something no one have seen before - the sky is the limit when it comes to MICRO. This design allows you to weave light around your lifestyle rather than the other way around, which accentuates LG’s Human Centric Care and Empathy design philosophy.
Can't remember what this little piggy was called, but she lived in a pen with two giant rabbits in the campsite at Lake Bled, Slovenia.
Well done Kelly for picking up teeny tiny micro toad! Or is it a frog? Well, its very small and cute. I could've taken this one home as a pet...
Micro Experiment
My first attempt at micro flower shot. And it proved what I learned from book before. I do need a tripod because my hands move sometimes. Without a tripod it's really not easy to take a clear shot. Also, enough light is important so the shutter speed can be faster. However, with tripod and photoshop light seems not that important. lol I guess I need to grab a tripod since I couldn't find an appropriate one at home. ;)
And this is how it - Tiny Wild Blue Flower - looks from the other side. This is a really small world.
The micro fluff is the newest (and smallest!) member of the Pocket Fluff family!
This little one is about 1 inch tall and 1.5 inches wide.
He's made of a light pink faux fur.
His face was hand painted by me using artist quality acrylics and sealed with a matte varnish.
Pocket Fluffs are able to stand on their own. :)
The Pocket Fluff Monsters are made from my original design.
****Please Note:
The micro pocket fluffs are VERY small. I only recommend this size for adult collectors.****
