A sample of the ten tiny treefrogs I found this morning.

Eastern Dwarf Tree Frogs, mostly perched on guinea grass.

A chonky tiny frog huddled on a grass stalk. It has its legs tucked up under it, with only one paw out.Two tiny frogs near each other. The left hand one is in focus and perched on a near vertical blade of grass, whereas the right hand one is further away, more horizontal but out of focus.The frog that was out of focus in the shot of two frogs, now on its own on a wide blade of grass. It has a browner colouring than the others (they can change colours from green to brown and back)A tiny frog on a grass stem "hiding" under the seed spray.

Yes, more tiny frogs today. This one was too close for the big camera, so iPhone it was.

I did not take my macro kit in to the office today, so of course there’s an extra tiny frog right by the fence this morning.

Bonus Frog Friday!

I brought the macro kit in with me today and then had to lean precariously out over the railing to get this shot. (I do wish they'd perch in a more accessible spot).

It is once again Thursday, so it must be #TinyFrogThursday again!

This morning I spotted SEVEN tiny Eastern Dwarf Tree Frogs warming themselves in the morning sun. 1 of 2.

The campus birds weren't doing anything interesting on my walk to the office this morning, so I swung past the spot where the frogs hang out, and was not disappointed.

Spot the frog! A tiny green frog perches on a green, grasshopper-eaten leaf, in the sun. There are a good many other leaves around and you have to look carefully to see the frog.A very tiny green frog sitting on an orange which is still mostly green, but starting to change colour.

This morning's campus wildlife is once again the tiny Eastern Dwarf Tree Frog in its favourite leaf nest, and an Australasian Grebe (one of two on the lake this morning).

Found another Eastern Dwarf Tree Frog this afternoon. Same general area as the others.

So tiny, so cute.

New day, new frog photo.

Found more Eastern Dwarf Tree Frogs this morning. This one though, had found itself a little leaf nest to sit in while warming in the morning sun.

A tiny green frog sitting in a "nest" of a couple of leaves forming a cup. The leaves have been chewed by grasshoppers, so that they have a jagged edge. The leaf cup is above a large citrus fruit that is starting to change colour from green to a greeny-yellow.

I went back this afternoon via the spot the tiny frogs were this morning and there were two out in the open.

So here's some more Tiny Frog Thursday for you.

It's Tiny Frog Thursday!

(ok I made that up, but it is Thursday and I did find a tiny frog).

Another (maybe the same one) Eastern Dwarf Tree Frog. Spotted this morning sunning itself on a broad blade of grass.

The third photo is an iPhone shot, and includes a tiny grasshopper for scale.

#AustralianWildlife #WildOz #EasternDwarfTreefrog #Frog #amphibian

Side vie of the frog. It is mostly in the shade, with a patch of sun behind. It is green on top (including tops of its limbs) and yellow underneath, and includes a gold/dark stipe from the nose, through the eye and doesn its side to the belly.Looking down at the top of the tiny frog, sitting with its legs tucked underneath it, on a blade of grass in the sun. From the top, it is pretty much the same colour as the grass and at first glance, could be a beetle.Tiny frog in-situ. Several broad long blades of grass in the photo, one of which contains a tiny frog, another a tiny grasshopper.

My morning was improved one-hundred-fold by the discovery of this tiny Eastern Dwarf Treefrog on a citrus fruit.

It was no bigger than a beetle, and almost the same colour as the unripe fruit.

#AustralianWildlife #WildOz #frog #EasternDwarfTreefrog

A tiny green frog with black stripe through its eye and around the nose, huddled on a green citrus fruit. It is almost the same colour as the fruit and is presumably hoping not to be noticed.A crop of the previous image to better show the tiny frog. It is green on top, with a black stripe running along its side, through the eye and down to the nose. The legs are tucked up under it, but some of the gold colouring on the legs is visible.
