The edible frog (Pelophylax kl. esculentus) is a name for a common European frog, also known as the common water frog or green frog
I saw this belted kingfisher hit the lake, and fully expected her to bring up a fish. Later, on the computer, I saw that she'd found a frog, and flew across the lake with it before settling to enjoy her meal.

Other frogs may be a lot more colourful, but I love the Borneo eared frog. Taken at a Just Frogs photo day with CaptiveLight in Bournemouth.
Striped Rocket Frog (Litoria nasuta)
Found this little guy indoors on a potted plant, which likely explains why he was sitting in a water conservation position; air conditioning and frogs do not mix well.
-I put some black card behind the plant to remove as much distraction as possible; and while reasonably dark (look at the frogs pupils) this wasn't actually night (MY SECRETS REVEALED!)
Green and beautiful, this frog took no notice as its photo was taken from multiple angles. When talent scouts come cruising, the least one can do is pose and give your best Mona Lisa smile, fame is incidental to a frog so friendly and fabulous.

I can't believe how long it has been that I have been around but it has been a very crazy last few month and I'm sure a lot of you out there will agree with me!!!
I hope everybody is well. I'll will try to make my way around and check out what you have been posting.
Take care and stay safe!
The green tree frogs have been plenty around here this year. This guy was sitting on our front-door ;-)

Probably the largest bush frog in Raorchestes genus(Previously under Philatus and Pseudophilautus genus). First desrcibed in 2005 from Ponmudi Hills, part of Agasthyamala Hill range in Thiruvananthapuram District of Kerala.
In IUCN website, the species is "Listed as Critically Endangered because its Extent of Occurrence is less than 100 km2, all individuals are in a single location, and there is continuing decline in the extent and quality of some of its habitat." But its based on old data as this specimen is photographed from Coorg in Karnataka which is far from the described type locality. So the conservation status may drop to 'Endangered' or 'Vulnerable' or 'Near Threatened.' Nonetheless its status is threatened with habitat reduction everywhere.
Common name: Ponmudi Bush Frog
Scientific name: Raorchestes ponmudi
Place: Coorg, Karnataka

Our resident frog making good use of the pond weed,which has gone crazy with all this warm weather of late.
When my granddaughter was about 4 years old i took her on a short walk along a river and a small pond. The frogs were croaking someplace unseen and her comment stuck with me. "It sounds like a frog party, papa". Kids are so cool!
