Finally in Good Light - _TNY_7591

My local butterfly house has, on top of all the spectacular butterflies and moths, also some poisondart frogs jumping around - ie not in an aquarium or enclosure, but running (or jumping, I suppose) around freely so you have to watch your step.

 

I've only seen them a couple of times and every time they have been sort of in indirect light, but this one finally sat out in the open on a rock in a bit of sunlight (through the roof) so I could capture a little more detail on one.

 

The species has the wonderful name phantasmal poison frog (Epipedobates tricolor) and is native to Equador.
