Yeah - I dig the groove of "Old World" and couldn't resist putting it up there.

We have great, big, green tree frogs and these smaller brown frogs (which I think are the burrowing kind because they have pointy noses and fingers, rather than webbed feet).

Unfortunately we also have the scourge that is the Cane Toad! I don't know if you know our history, but it was brought to Australia to keep down the numbers of the cane beetle. It turned out that the Cane Toad didn't much like cane beetles and ate a whole bunch of other stuff instead! They have traveled thousands of kilometres from Queensland into the Northern Territory. They are toxic too, so anything that eats them dies. They kill our native frogs as well, which makes me very sad.

When we built the ponds we asked at a nursery about how to tell the difference between the eggs of frogs and toads, apparently the toad eggs are in a long string, whereas the frog's eggs are in a mass (a bit like spit). So I'll be keeping an eye out this Wet season.
