Yep - poured down yesterday and last night, and got a call that the rare frog Litoria brevipalmata, the green-thighed frog had emerged and was breeding - had to go out right :) :) :)

Beautiful photographs of beautiful frogs. Is the second also a male? The throat looks a little yellow and somewhat saggy.

Thanks Andrew - I think the second was actually a female - it was bigger than the calling males, and was a lot lighter in colouration. the first brevi we ever found had similar colouration - nowhere near as dark chocolate a colour, and larger - it was a confirmed female ....
They are beautiful frogs though :) I was like a pig in mud last night :) :)
