Large chorus of P. crucifer at a vernal pond.
These frogs live in the front of my house, in the giant birds-of-paradise plants. They despise water. When it rains, they jump on the porch and come into the house beneath the front door. Once inside, they can't find their way out again and I have to catch them.
I have a small pond in my backyard and these frogs have been extremely vocal. I've seen one tadpole in the pond but I'm sure there are more.
