I heard these calling a lot from low vegetation as we climbed up through the cloud forest zone towards Mt. Kinabalu basecamp.
This was taken at about 2500m.
Unfortunately I only got one shot, so it may not be possible to get a definite identification from this, I thought it was a juvenile?
It was found near a forest stream within Kinabalu National Park, at approximately 1585m above sea level.
There were a lot of these calling from the forest floor near a forest stream within Kinabalu National Park, at approximately 1585m above sea level.
These were quite common and calling noisily from vegetation next to, or overhanging, a forest stream within Kinabalu National Park, at approximately 1585m above sea level.
Found next to a forest stream in Kinabalu National Park, at approximately 1585m above sea level.
I found quite a lot of these in small flows of water running into a forest stream within Kinabalu National Park, at approximately 1585m above sea level.
Found within a rotting log, next to a forest stream, in Kinabalu National Park, at approximately 1585m above sea level.
Hiding within a rotting log on the forest floor, next to a forest stream, in Kinabalu National Park. I found it because its call was quite different from any of the other frogs I'd heard in the area, which made me more detirmined to locate its hiding spot.
At approximately 1500m above sea level.
Found next to a forest stream on very low vegetation in Kinabalu National Park, at approximately 1585m above sea level.
Found next to a forest stream in Kinabalu National Park, at approximately 1585m above sea level.
Found on a large leaf overhanging a forest stream, in Kinabalu National Park, at approximately 1585m above sea level.
Tiny and usually very well hidden, thankfully they call frequently and loudly, otherwise we'd never find them. So far we've found them in marshy areas and vegetation next to small and large ponds that are also being used by much larger species (eg. Hylarana guentheri).
Found resting on a tree in Sai Kung Country Park.
Found during the daytime, stuck down a storm drain. Normally they are much more wary and difficult to approach closely.
A very commonly found lizard in Hong Kong and on cooler days is very often found sunning itself on concrete or sunny shrubs.
This young adult was found inside a water catchment.
These are active and fast moving diurnal snakes and we seem to find they remain active in cooler weather than many of the other Hong Kong snakes.
Not great shots as these fast movers would not let me get close. They were found next to a rubbish pile right next to Angkor Wat.
I found two of this species in a dry grassy area near ponds, not too far from the Angkor temple complex.
I saw quite a lot of these juvenile K. baleata, but didn't see any adults. They were all found in a dry grassy area near the Angkor temple complex.
Found next to rain pools near the Angkor temple complex.
This one was burrowing into the soft mud.
