Guest - Jul 21, 2007 05:36 PM EDT The little bit of white above the eye could be a lack of minerals but the white around the eye is normal,I have a turtl(25yrs) that after coming out of hibernation has this white tinge,but as they become more into spring /summer and eating and basking in the sun helps that disappears.
Guest - Jul 21, 2007 05:29 PM EDT Great clarity Carol,I think it's a frog,Australia has billions of cane toads no chance of running out of toads then,but some frogs are becoming rare,especially the tree frogs,regards Vince
Guest - May 12, 2007 03:41 AM EDT another that I missed earlier, Carol. Agreeing with all the other comments, very different looking frog, both green and bronze colours on him/her :) I've never seen one with that circle near the eye. great shot
Guest - Mar 15, 2007 01:09 PM EDT Thanks Talsi.
Guest - Mar 14, 2007 09:36 AM EDT Wonderful image - great detail in the frog.
Guest - Mar 14, 2007 06:56 AM EDT Thanks Marsha for the lovely comment.
Guest - Mar 13, 2007 07:55 PM EDT What an unusual frog. I have never seen one with two tone coloring like that. Great capture.
Guest - Mar 13, 2007 06:41 PM EDT Thanks Don for commenting and the info on the frog.
Guest - Mar 13, 2007 04:34 PM EDT Great shot carol! What a pretty frog. Looks like his back half was dipped in bronze paint. He is a frog for sure. Toads have much shorter back legs, and they hop around, but frogs have the big back legs for leaping. Don
Guest - Mar 13, 2007 10:56 AM EDT Thanks Mary.
Guest - Mar 13, 2007 10:40 AM EDT Beautiful capture Carol. It looks like a frog to me. I tried to do a google.com and I found frogs with that circle beside the eye but no toads...so I'm not sure.
Guest - Mar 13, 2007 10:26 AM EDT Thanks Alan,cant believe you never have frogs,I thought everyone had Frogs.
Steve thanks for commenting,I dont know which it is.LOL but im very happy to learn these facts from you both.
Carol
Guest - Mar 13, 2007 10:19 AM EDT Frog? Or toad? Either way, I agree with Alan that they are wonderful creatures, sadly threatened in most of their habitats. I love the green and bronze colours in this fellow.
Guest - Mar 13, 2007 10:14 AM EDT Great photo Carol.. Wonderful colors and focusing. I wish we had frogs where I live, I think they are so cute.
