Kewell! Did you get to the frog display with the cute little coroboree frogs? They would be a good one to test the camera on.

Great shots Moose. Love those poison dart frogs. Apparently they lose their poison once in captivity. Something about not eating toxic ants or something.

Grrr
That is also very fascinating Jules. I wonder whether that really is the case with the dart frogs? I'll have to go looking now |

These were taken in January. As you can see I had reflection problems with the wee Coroboree frog but the Chondro pic turned out well.
