The title of this blog comes from a Gaelic expression -"putting on the poor mouth"-which means to exaggerate the direness of one's situation in order to gain time or favour from creditors.

And now here's a frogfish
I can't find footage of a handfish to embed but check the video from Der Spiegel
yet some people claim you never see evidence of what looks like "intermediate" stages in evolution. They should look at this, and consider penguin's wings, et., etc., oh and men's brains, perhaps...
Come back in a few million years and the frogfish will be performing ballet, and men might have learned how much beer is sufficient.

I think it's cute!
I think they look very graceful and not at all like fish!
It doesn't look like it's of this world at all

Absolutely Andrew. I think you're right about the frogfish doing ballet but man learning what a sufficency of beer? I doubt it somehow!

If I didn't stop by for regular visits I never would have seen this remarkable creature (and friend). Thanks for the treat.
