Made another short night trip up to Mt Glorious last night. Just after I suggested we turn around and head home because we'd found nothing, we came across this little critter halfway across the road, about to become DoR.
Some kind citizen halted on-coming traffic and relocated it a short distance off road where I took this photo.
Theres a particular pond up on the way which is rife with frogs. The noise is deafening and often the hard part is trying to track down one individual by isolating its call from the rest.
We found these, which I'm unsure of. Both sounded like tyleri, but they sounded slightly different to each other. They're both of a slightly different shape, and the eyes are a little different. If I'd seen them on separate occasions I would have thought both were Litoria tyleri. Now I'm not sure. Any ideas?
Litoria fallax were also abundant, as usual. 'The pond' was like a giant frog orgy.
No doubt we'll be making more trips up to Glorious given its relatively close proximity, so I might just keep adding to this thread as we make more trips and photograph more animals.
