Green Tree Frog (Pelodryas caeruleus)
A Green Tree Frog (Pelodryas caeruleus syn. Ranoidea/Litoria caerulea), Tomago Sandbeds, New South Wales, Australia.
A juvenile frog pictured here. These frogs are often easy to detect on warm (25C+) nights with high humidity, or following heavy rain in the warmer months when breeding occurs, otherwise they can be difficult to find, despite their conspicuousness and large (adult) size.
The Tomago sandbeds, covering the area from Tomago/Heatherbrae across to the Tillergerry Peninsula appears to be a stronghold for this species on the NSW Central Coast. Otherwise the species has suffered declines and is now uncommon in many parts of its coastal range.
