FANCY THAT!...This fancy frog appears to be wearing a butterfly as a fascinator. The moment, like something out of a Disney film, was spotted in a North Jakarta forest, Indonesia by accountant Laurence Suryanata.
The 72 year old said, “I was amazed when I witnessed and captured this moment. I felt very lucky. I was walking around the forest on my day off looking for nice photos and stumbled upon the scene.”
“The frog looks like it’s wearing the butterfly as a fascinator. I believe it is a dumpy white tree frog, which is commonly kept as a pet in Indonesia, so it may be an escaped pet.”
