Photo Hunters : Tiny

photo hunters

Today's topic is Tiny.

Although I have several tiny-related theme photos, but I love this picture the most. The normal-sized Chicken Egg looks huge in comparison with the vulnerable teeny-tiny mini Lizard Egg.

tnchick,
Yeah, The contrast will be even greater if I have an ostrich egg. LOL

lana g,
cute and tiny, which remind me of the toy tiny egg :)

julie,
Previously I used to see those eggs inside the key holes. This particular lizard egg, I noticed it while I clear some stuffs and documents on the table. It was hidden at the corner of the table :)

CRIZ LAI said...

Great shot. Tiny and cute. You should have taken a goose egg, then the differences will be greater. Wishing you a calm, happy and lovely weekend! http://crizlai.blogspot.com/2007/07/photo-hunters-tiny.html

may said...

so you got keep the lizard as a pet after it hatched anot?

Chen said...

will,
I cleared my desk and saw the egg mah. Mana i tau how it taste like woh? Not that I go & cook/makan it lah.. Hahhahaha..

I used to see them inside the keyholes in the past :)

tegdirb92,
Thanks. Hope u have a nice weekend too.

jmb,
I love to look at lizard eggs. Used to peep at the eggs inside the keyholes as the female lizards love to lay eggs inside there, cos it's sort of secure :)

misha,
Hahahha... Too bad I dun have a duck egg at that time, else both the eggs will be same in colour but different sizes :)

Chen said...

Melli ,
Glad u love it.
I like the picture too.

kissedalotatoads,
Yeah, lizards eggs are tiny. I wonder how's the egg yolk like - must be tiny mini too. Feel like wanting to break the lizard egg but I didn't :)

kyh,
Yeap, i hate the lizard black and white colour police traffic uniform-like shit...

rinnah,
u never see before? o.O
I seen a lot during my childhood days. Used to see the eggs inside the keyholes. The mama lizards think that is the safest places to lay eggs cos it's not accessible :)

Chen said...

criz lai,
Hehehhe.. If i have a duck egg, it would be nice too.. Coz same colour but different sizes. I have never see a goose egg before.

U have a happy weekend too :)

mudpie,
Kakaakaka... Dinosaur egg huh?
LOL

ehon,
The mama lizard very momok and she laid eggs on the table behind my documents and books. When I cleared the table, I saw two eggs on the table. One already hatched and the other one was still intact.

Ate lizard egg? Walao.. edible meh?
Summore so small, how to eat woh?
hahhahha..

Chen said...

yenjai,
Hehehe, most of the time it's a last minute job. I mean searching for the photo at the last minute from my collection of photos. This particular shot was taken a year ago. I'm a last minute person. Unless it's something important, then different story loh :)

angel,
ah boy's egg?
u mean ah boy's breakfast ah?
Neh.. the half boiled egg he makan
LOL

lynn,
Hehehhe.. Thanks. I took the photo a year ago :)

day-dreamer said...

Good comparison!!

Which reminds me, I haven't ate eggs for quite some time already.

Tomorrow wanna eat eggs liao... LOL!!

Chen said...

ben,
hehhee..
I know u HATE cicak :P

goober,
Seeing lizard's stomach/abdomen full of eggs?
u dissect the lizard meh?
else how u manage to see the abdominal contents woh? :)

carcar,
Kakkaka... u indeed have sharp eyes and good observation.

Yeah, the chicken egg was taken out from the fridge. That's why u saw water vapour condensation on the egg shell :P

Chen said...

Dragonheart,
Happy Belated Birthday, Dragonheart. U are such a unique and cute cat :)

Yeah, it's so tiny and looks like the little toy eggs that I used to have during my childhood days.

meeyauw,
Nope, that's not my lizard. I saw two eggs on the table behind my piles of documents and books when I cleared the table. One of the eggs was hatched and the other one was still intact - the one which appeared in this photo :)

Chen said...

AlvinC,
Thanks, alvinc.
I will check out yours soon :)

may,
hehehe, the egg was finally hatched one day and i dunno where the baby lizard disappeared... All that left behind was the hatched lizard egg shells :)

day dreamer,
luckily u didnt say u haven't eat lizard eggs for long, else i will be extremely worried.. LOL

Half Boiled Egg, hard boiled egg, fried egg, scrambled egg, buffalo eye egg, steamed egg.. so many varieties :)

Chen said...

eastcoastlife,
Hahahha.. I dun keep lizards, I only shoo away lizards :P I accidentally came across the egg a year ago (hahaha.. the photo was taken last year lah, not that I kept the egg for a year) behind my piles of documents and books when I cleared the table one year ago. Two eggs to be exact. One of the eggs was hatched and the other one was still intact - the one which appeared in this photo :)

doreen,
*faint again*
I don't fren lizard, nor i keep them.. hahahhaha... I dun like lizard by the way.

Suddenly I was reminded of the frozen lizard. Click here if u wanna know what am i yakking about. LOL

Chen said...

misti,
She's a poor woman who sprained her ankle loh in a foreign land.. Very kesian and very cham. No fried eggs but at least get to taste the oyster egg omelette.

woof meow,
found on the table a year ago behind my piles of books and files. The mother lizard must be damn stupid to lay eggs on the table, I meant at such an insecure place. LOL.

Big meh? So tiny u call it big?
must wear spect liao :P

misti,
Hehhhe, finally u know who is she. Her ankle is still swollen and she is flying back to her home sweet home today together with her hubby :)

Chen said...

cocka,
Ah boy mana ada eggs woh?
He has balls lah..
I understand Angel took one shot of his balls yesterday noon cos she knows u adore klang-klang :P
LOLOL

sbanboy,
I wish I had a duck egg at that moment. An ostrich egg will be even better. Hahhahha.. Dunno whether the baby lizard that hatched from the telur is still alive or not, cos the pict was taken a year ago :)
