On a misty Saturday evening, 13 of us were led by Karl Just to a special spot in Happy Valley where he had installed some roofing tiles on the ground, perfect habitat for the Bibrons Toadlet. We had the opportunity to hear it, see it and it’s eggs. Recording the toadlet’s call in the Frog ID app and letting Karl know of any sightings is hoped to help avoid any planned burns which would destroy the populations and contribute to this species becoming more threatened. If you want to be involved, please email us at info@fobif.org.au.
Using Frog ID app in situ.
