We fortunately managed to redo one of the Lamington Surveys last week
on Wednesday, and this time weren't rained out. We were lucky enough
to find 4 calling individuals along the Albert River Track (I don't
know how the other group did). 3 of these were calling from the Echo
Point area. No sightings sadly, but we weren't standing around for
long either. Also an update on my frog sightings last time, they
weren't Fleay's Barred Frogs but Black Soled Frogs with a very dark
brown complexion. Having only seen the creamy coloured Black Soled
Frogs before I was fooled until the ranger corrected me. Ah well.
