Conservation Volunteering Frog Day





Hey Kiddos!
Trecia and I are part of the Conservation Volunteering here in Sydney. Today we were able to listen and look at frogs. There were 5 different types of frogs (Green and Gold Bell Frog, Perons Tree Frog, Dwarf Tree Frog, Striped Marsh Frog, and the Common Eastern Froglet) and we saw 2 of them. The frogs we saw have bright colors on the back of their legs to scare away predators. The females are bigger than the males, and we even learned the call of the Green and Golden Bell Frog! Here are some pics of the frogs. The two that are dark green are of the Golden Green Bell Frogs, and the smaller brown ones are of the Perons Tree Frog (we saw 7 of these ones!)

(P.S. Maybe your teacher can google what a Green and Gold Bell Frog sound like)
