I believe the Red-eyed Frog may be the darling of Costa Rica but I have to admit that when this Gold-eyed Frog was discovered I thought it was a 'golden gem' for second place. I have to admit I do love the frogs...:)
day 2
The Amazonica is the largest member of the water lily family. The lily pads are up to 8 feet across and the large fragrant white to pink blooms have a sweet pineapple-like scent on the first day of its two day lifecycle. The flowers will open at night on the first day being white, then turn pink after being fertilized.
The lily pads are up to 8 feet across and are supported by a ribbed underside and anchored to a submerged stalk allowing the leaf to float on the surface. These stalks can be up to 26 feet long and they embed themselves in the lake or river bottom. This rapid growing plant can expand by up to 20 inches per day. While the upper surface has water repellent properties, the underside is protected from herbivorous fish by its sharp spines. Air becomes trapped between the ribs on the underside, which keeps it afloat.

No wonder he kept adjusting his shorts, check out that fitting cut.
A colleague even offered to solve the mysterious 'quick pull of shorts' as a pre-match ritual he must do in order to win.
