Frogs and Arum lilies

Over the years I have taken many photos of small frogs hiding inside clivia flowers. The inside cover photo of Clivia Nature and Nurture was taken by me on my farm. When it is not clivia flowering time they hide inside arum lilies to catch insects. I have taken the photos below when a frog moved out of the arum lily flower to take a break basking in the winter sun. By moving in and out of the flowers they pollinate the flowers. See if you can see the pollen on the frog in the second and last photos.
