Frog Arusha NP, Tanzania for ID (1 Viewer)

[Steve Babbs]

Request for help with ID. Sorry I've completely failed to identify this frog from Arusha NP, Tanzania, 20/4/2022. If anyone can help it would be much appreciated.

Not a lot of help, I am afraid, but the toes and the body stance points towards a tree frog.

Or, if it was really small, a Reed Frog eg Hyperolius marmoratus verrucosus

I'd say it was this

Steve and I are not bosom buddies but I've provided help to ID this frog and made a suggestion for his last butterfly, it's good manners to at least acknowledge someones efforts to help you.

As I said, I won't bother again.

I have now seen that Andy has been commenting on this, which I did not realise. I believe you are correct Andy and it is common reed frog. Thanks for you comment. Hopefully you now know that I did not respond as I did not see that you had commented as you are blocked. If I click see ignored member it appears briefly and then disappears. I would rather leave our political disagreements off other threads. I would like to unblock you but, unless I stop looking looking at Ruffled Feathers, that is not an option at the moment as I rise to the bait far too easily.
