Recording type: video/mpeg

Video of a whistling tree frog calling from lilies at the edge of Lily lake, Nov 5th at 10.10pm, 2008.  Video as well as sound recordings were made during this time. Interestingly male frogs are suspected to be the only frogs that call so the frog population is more likely to be bigger than numbers heard suggest. During the video another frog was spotted on the same lily which possibly was its mate.

The weather was cool, gusty and raining. In fact seconds prior to the video its was hailing.
