This frog visited our tent after some heavy rains. Yep, too wet even for this frog. But he wasn't without his pond inside the tent!
Well, it's either an orange thighed or a graceful tree frog... Maybe you know more of it?

Even if you can't identify it - Cool pics aye - even if I do say so myself hehe...
Very friendly fellow... wouldn't leave us alone... even when we tried putting him on a tree. He jumped all over the camera!
Hope you all had a great christmas!

Cool pics indeed, it nearly looks fake.
If your going to handle frogs I've heard you should wet your hands first so your sweat (which is salty) doesn't irritate or dehydrate them.
cheers jordo

cheers jordo | Hands were wet... we were fishing our stuff out of our flooded tent!!! hehe...
And you're right it does look fake.. but i can assure you - this frog is anything but a faker...  was too cute to be a fake! Wished I had a couple in my garden!
