Little Tree Frog, Emerald, Victoria, Australia

This tiny little frog was no bigger than an adult humans thumb nail

When I was a teenager the frogs started to come to the bathtub every year i would nurse these babies until they became frogs, then i grew up and moved away Mum now still nurses the frogs to adults. Every year the Tree Frogs come and lay eggs in an old bath tub in my parents backyard. About 400 frogs surive the journey in the tub.

Mum gets alot of joy at night when locking up the chickens in the dark she takes the torch and shines it on the tub as she walks past to lock the chickens up usually theres either tad poles, older or younger frogs on the edge, in the water of the bath tub or on the water lillies they make beautiful music in summer when its been a stinking hot day then the rain comes and they sing its beautiful.

    They are breeding like mad, Mum has about 400 tadpoles in her bathtub in the garden at the moment. The adult frogs visit nightly to sing there song.
