South Britany small herping session

[masni]

This is my first post on the caudata.org forums. I stumbled on a few interesting species yesterday morning in the extreme south of Britany and thought I could share that with you all. so here goes :

Podarcis muralis

That I found here :

A small pond were I was told some newts larvae inhabit but was unable to check out :

Then the interesting stuff :

This subadult Triturus marmoratus was randomnly found under a rotting tree log bark.

The magic scenery :

Finaly what I think are some Green Treefrog tadpoles (Hyla arborae) found in a very vegetated pond just nearby the marbled newt forest

Sorry for my english
Cheers - Lilian

Fantastic! Well done on the finds. I'm pretty sure you have a Hyla arborea larva there. Thanks for sharing and welcome to the forum .
