We just walked through the Cahokia Mounds park, like a fool I took no camera. The most interesting thing we saw was a fallen tree on top of whose trunk was a small frog dead for some days I would guess. But on top of that was another larger dead frog, clearly of a different species. How did they come to die together like that? I suggested that the larger one might have been in the act of eating the smaller when the two in turn was snatched by a crow, who dropped the them to save itself when it was stooped on by a hawk. But that argument has too much of Renfield about it.

Andrew asked if the Frogs were not in heaven? 'In Frog heaven no doubt,' I said, 'singing eternal choruses of Brekakakex Koax Koax.'
