Had a few great nights out spotlighting in Le Balze and Valdarno last week. Some great Italian endemic #amphibians (but no spectacled salamanders!) including Italian Stream and Tree #Frogs, plus an Agile Frog and an edible #Dormouse. #Italy #Nocturnal

A Copper-cheeked Frog (Chalcorana labialis) spotted at Lower Pierce Reservoir Park, Singapore, on 13 August 2023. Pointed it out to some people passing by who also admired it.

Agressive invaders, they rapidly expand territory, hunting and killing anything they can overpower, including small #reptiles and #amphibians.
