ok - motorbike frog, Litoria moorei, and it really does sound like a motorbike changing gear ...
go here http://www.frogsaustralia.net.au/frogs/ ... rog_id=166, and click on the call section to hear it :)

Taken at John Forest National Park, just outside of Perth, Western Australia :)

Edit - thought I should point out the fact that there has been no desaturation of the background, the frog was sitting on dead leaf litter around a dam in the National Park - and the colour of the frog is ridiculous ! :)

Thanks Blacknstormy...the guy who lives next to my parents breeds these frogs as a hobby...this photo brought back memories of my family chasing these frogs through the garden at night so that my mum could get a decent night's sleep! :D
