Apologies, put my notes only in the private. So now adding by the comment.
I think 6 different species of frogs calling. I could distinguish these calls and counts would be Crinia parasignifera - > 16 Crinia signifera - 4-15 (very hard to pick up as others were so noisy) Lymnodynastes tasmaniensis - 4-15 - can hear one around the 23 and 26 seconds in. Also heard these and location on file Voice 261017_204736 with temps.m4a Uperolea leavigata - first heard at 6 seconds and throughout. Numbers would be 4-15 or more Litoria peronii clearly at 33 seconds and many more times. I think in the range 4-15 for numbers Litoria verreuxii clearly at 52 seconds or again at 1.05. I think 1-3 for count. 2 recordings, apologies for the noises. Location is the large dam on western side of Gungaderra grasslands. Photos taken in the day on 14th Oct. Sound recordings on 17th October in the evening. Weather at night was a clear sky but with light breeze. Air temp was 12 degrees and water was 19 degrees. Water flow was still. Dam is surrounded by thick grass, not mowed and with reeds around parts of it. The north east corner where the water drains in from was quite wet with water over the edge of the dam. Gorrieje
