Next, the ornate burrowing frog. These guys actually bury themselves, and emerge after rain. Very cool frog :)

Must have been going a bit crazy in the old burrow for the last year or so, eh Narelle?!

Lovely shot and he's obviously over the moon about our recent downpours.

Great skills on display here, not only in capturing a beautiful nature image, but also in finding and approaching the subject.

Didn't realise entomologists studied frogs too.
Are you working up the food chain? :D
Nice shot of the frog, given those muted colours.

Love it..although it does look like you scared the proverbial out of him with your flash! I guess it doesn't help he's been underground in the dark!

Ahhh..bright light!

It makes my day to know that the frogs have reached out and touched you ;)

Killa, Manta, Hangdog, Cricketfan, Oneputt, Mic & Beetleboy - thank you for taking the time to comment on this photo :)

And besides, as an entomologist, I have to know the enemy that are eating my beautiful little bugs don't I??????? :lol:
