You don't have to go out to enjoy the frogs calling you! If you have a pond on your property, or close to it, you can still join in the fun!

These beauties might be calling you this weekend - they are ramping up for spring! Spotted Marsh Frogs were the most commonly recorded species by citizen scientists last year.

A wet winter means there's lots of water around for the frogs! It's going to be a great weekend to get out there (even if only within 5km if your house!) - the frogs are calling you!

Spring is in the air and soon the spring breeding frogs like this beautiful Pobblebonk will be calling you!

This species is also known as a Banjo Frog, because it sounds like a banjo string being plucked!

It might be grey and gloomy, but the frogs are still calling you! Your backyard pond or farm dam are great places to make recordings!

Environmental water is water held and then later released for the benefit of ecosystems. The Frogs Are Calling You project is helping investigate the best timings and amount of #environmentalwater for frogs.

Check out these beauties! Both tree frogs, but there are several species that look like this - even though they look so different! The best way, as always, to identify frogs is through their calls. @FrogIDAus for the win!

Thanks to Kay and Lyndsey for the photo!
