Smilisca phaeota, Masked Tree Frog
ISO 100 1/8 f/2.8 100mm
Gamboa, Panama 2007
This masked tree frog is adopting a "water conservation
posture" and in doing so the animal reduces surface to
air contact, minimizing evaporation from its skin.
Despite being a visually gorgeous frog, its a surprise
that its hoarse mating call doesn't repel females.
