John Wombey said "The pale Frog is Litoria peronii, the pale colour is of no significance, they can darken or lighten at will and are common in the Canberra suburbs.... "

We have lived in the northern end of Forde since 2013 (56 Blizzard Cct) and one of the first projects I took on was to build a small creek and pond in the backyard. These frogs (Peron's tree Frog) have been very common visitors to our yard and croak to us all night long, which we are used to now. During the recent rains we had masses of little babies, probably no bigger than 4-5mm hopping around the outside of the house. Directly across the road from us is the major creek line that has been re-aligned along Mulligans Flat Road, I had always assumed our visiting frogs had made the short trip across the road as I offer a permanent water source, unlike the creek.
