User's notes

A very large (7cm or so) dead frog being fed on by tadpoles - sorry it's a bit gruesome. If it's too decayed to id, I'll delete the record. Ta.

useful tip if you think it is a Banjo Frog, only all species of Banjo frogs have that distinct blister like gland on the tibia, visible here. If we can see that, then no problems, id in the bag!

Ta. I had to do an internet search on the blister and still can't see it on my photos but will keep in mind in the unlikely event I see another frog (I don't often find them but even I couldn't miss this one). Very much appreciate tips on what to photograph to help with ids
