The National Aquarium has (and rears) | Poison Dart Frogs | in their Tropical Rainforest biome. Fun Fact: the ones raised in captivity aren't poisonous. They eat something in the wild that contains curare, which they concentrate in their skin. Those bright colors are nature's Way of saying "fuck off, predators".
EEH. It was down to 46 °F a little after 3 today. 76 °F clear blue and breezy. Perfect June day, one of the only 3 or so we get before the gross heat & humidity kick in.
O/O/T: Driving back to HQ from the field today I saw a crappy 90's Chevy pickup with a huge flag flying from a rear corner bed flagpole. These flags are usually flown by enormous assholes and have suitably asshole themes, and as he passed me I was not disappointed.
It was a TRUMP FOR PRESIDENT 2016 flag, all red-white and blue-like. Instead of the usual catch phrase at the bottom, though, it said (and I shit you not), in big blue letters: NO MORE BULLSHIT
The cognitive dissonance is still bending my brain, hours later.
