More Hobbiton herping ?(my first night herp)

[beatlloydy]

I was fortunate enough to receive an invite to the exclusive Hobbiton Herpers.
this was to be my first night time foray...have done plenty of night MTB'ing so the dark was not an issue.

As a complete newbie I think I only spotted one or 2 of the extremely common Underwoodisauris Milli. Part of this was extreme nebyness and the other was the headlamp was no where near bright enough....time to order the Princeton Tech extreme.

Anyway, had a great night, walked quite a few k's but the weather was beautiful.
Here are some pics...I have tried to identify as much as possible..where I was not reasonably sure I put unknown ...any corrections/ommission pls let me know

Just ghost over the pics for the names

Great pics, looks like the night was a success. Could the green frog be Litoria phyllochroa?

Nice work on the red naped!! That's not so common.

Thanks Guys...have to restate I didnt actually spot any of the ones photographed...I just happened to be there...perhaps I can pull my weight a bit more next time

Yep..thats the one...it was ID'd as that on the night by one of the more experienced herpers...but my memory for latin names is quite bad.

Legs are fine...I can walk all night...just climbing up/down gets the old back a but touchy.

Your first 2 pics are both Litoria lesururi.. and yes the other is phyllochroa, we also found a few Litoria freycineti as well as an echidna and wouldn't even like to guess how many milii were out last night, I'm too scared to look at the soles of my boots.
