Broad-banded Grass Frog

Broad-banded Grass Frog
Listening to this loud quacking one could easily think that it came from a large duck instead of a frog only 40-50 mm in length. This is the Broad-banded Grass Frog (or Mozambique Ridged Frog) - a common resident in flooded grasslands and temporary pans from northern South Africa up into Zambia. It calls from the cover of grass tufts and despite its loud quack is difficult to find. Edible Bullfrogs call in the background.
