Japanese tree frog
  •  Comment Since I didn't take the picture I don't know which flower it is or whether the frog was put on it for the picture. However Japanese tree frogs are often found on vegetation (engl. Wikipedia: "These tree frogs are commonly found in rice paddies, and rest during the day on rice leaves and other broad-leaved vegetation."), so it wouldn't be impossible to find it coincidentally or at least I would say it's not unnatural behavior. Also look at the species category with lots of frogs on vegetation. Lupe (talk) 16:40, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think a frog cares for the difference. Lupe (talk) 15:14, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Wrong. A frog would be unlikely to choose to reveal itself on a bright red background. Moving the frog is fine, but putting it on a red flower is just silly. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:55, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Well, what is "unlikely"?. It's already unlikely since most vegetation is green. Frogs certainly react more to movement than color. So I belive they would jump on red surfaces, see also other examples frog on red apple, frog on red flower #1 #2, #3 Lupe (talk) 21:39, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
