The Australian Herpetological Society held a field trip at Smiths Lake ( near Forster) last weekend, 20 - 22nd Feb, in all 23 members attended, and I think all had a good time. We were very lucky with the weather as it had been poring rain and cold the week before. A number of different species were encounted during the weekend, here a few of the pics that I took.
Red Backed Toadlets were calling from the roadside ditches
as were the odd Tusked Frog.
A male Red Eyed Tree Frog wasn't going to let a group of herpers from keeping him from calling out his area
some old grubby mud frog... not much really is it mattmc
Broad Palmed Frog
A few Angle heads were kicking around..
A Carpet snake..., quite a few turned up, even around the accommodation.
My son Ethan found a Scaley Foot
and a couple of Dwarf Crown snakes were also found..
Plenty of other herps were turned up, Small eyes, Stephens Bandeds, various other frogs and common snakes and lizards...A pair of Lace Monitors roamed the area where we all stayed, looking for tit bits off the BBQ.. it was a good way to spend a weekend..
