Green and golden bell frog
Introduced to the Auckland area in the late 1860s, this frog (Litorea aurea) has not moved far. It is currently found only in the North Island north of Gisborne. Its call is a drawn-out croak, and it is mainly green with gold or bronze patches. The back of the thighs and groin are bright blue, and the belly is smooth and white. It grows to about 9 centimetres

Hi Tim

I do like your frog shots. They always look so content and relaxed when you photograph them. Stunning details and gorgeous colours. DOF and POV are both spot on

Hi Tim,
What a handsome dude you have capture here in fantastic clear colors and razor sharp details. Those crystal clear eyes are brilliantly seen as they scan for tasty bugs.
