This little frog has taken up home in my ornamental pond, probably because the drought has dried up his natural habitat. He likes to sit next to the LED lights and catch insects attracted in the late evening.
Thanks for the visit, comments, awards, invitations and favorites.

Having fun photographing the frogs at the RBG pond! The water around the lilypads was so interesting.
With my near abnormal love of amphibians and reptiles I was unable to resist a photographic workshop where I could get up close with these gorgeous creatures, I do however have a lot of reservations/issues about animals being used as props for hobbyists.
We continually searched for the red eye frog on our Costa Rican trip but as its a nocturnal frog only managed to catch it sleeping!
This is the elusive Pig Frog. It is often heard in the marsh and swamps, but it is rarely seen. It sounds like a pig.
My focus stacking software strips the EXIF so here's the story.
Nine frames focus stacked with:
Fuji X-T2, Fringer adapted Canon 180 3.5L,
f4, ISO 800, 1/800 second
Sarapiqui, Costa Rica
I loved the way this Reticulated Glass frog looked against the colors and textures of this leaf. It almost looks as though it is emerging from the leaf itself.
Look what I found while working in the garden, used the 300 f4 af-s with extension tubes and a 1.4 teleconverter as it was in the middle of a flower patch and hard to get too.
Pseudacris regilla
Last week I found these Frogs. Nothing exiting but they seem to change colors : on green leaves they are all green but watch what happens with maroon leaves.

We had just gotten off a boat from a river cruise in Costa Rica when I noticed this little critter on a palm frond. I took several shots of it but in this one I caught the nictitating membrane over his (his?) eye.
