Instead of reacting hysterically to the return of the inclement weather this week, we should have taken a leaf out of the book of the resourceful little creature on the front page of the Irish Examiner today.

Ireland wasn’t the only place to be hit with heavy rain and storms this week, Indonesia was also affected.

Rather than sitting there croaking about it, this little tree frog in East Java in Indonesia, measuring only 5cm in height, took the necessary measures to prevent it from getting soaked, leading to the quite brilliant picture by photographer Penkdix Palme that did the rounds online earlier this week and appeared on the front page of the Irish Examiner today.
