Went for a walk today near Bacchus Marsh, saw a whole bunch of tiny frogs and some pretty skinks. Not sure what they all are:

first frogs are litoria lesueurii, others are crinia signifera, skink is a garden skink l.guichenoti
good to see the frogs have bred again this year! They are at a real threat there with so many people swimming+picnicing at that spot.
Im not sure why they bask, its weird. But they become easy targets for kids everytime i go there :/

Thanks! I've only been there twice before, and in colder weather, today was great. I've never seen a garden skink with the bluish sheen to it before. The frogs were everywhere, I was trying to photograph some baby skinks running under the rocks and noticed all the little frogs hopping out from under my feet. Heaps of those grasshoppers (I think they're Yellow-winged Locusts) and I saw a Red Belly, but it got under a rock before I could get a pic.
