Postby Scavenger » Mon Nov 01, 2010 9:24 pm

Myself and a couple of mates decided too hit a mission. We didn't find all that much in terms of species, but none the less just getting out herping was good enough for me :)

Species Found:
Herald Snake Crotaphopeltis hotamboeia
Brown Water Snake Lycodonomorphus rufulus
Guttural Toad Bufo gutturalis
Red Toad Schismaderma carens
Common River Frog Afrana angolensis
Bushveld Rain Frog Breviceps adspersus
Yellow Striped Reed Frog Hyperolius semidiscus

Hope you guys enjoy.

Well done guys and amazing pictures. That yellow striped reed frog is a stunner.
And God has Created every animal from water, of them are some creeping on their bellies, some walk on two legs, and some on four. God Creates what He wills, for sure God has Power over all things. (Noble Quran 24:45)
