A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Project Noah Nature School
Raorchestes nerostagona
One rarity that only calls from high tree canopies, calls that echo exactly like a water drop. Since they never come down from the canopies, it was extremely difficult to photograph this while balancing high on a tree branch with a torch and camera. The gushing wind and lashing rains added another difficulty level. Got a video and this shot after almost two hours. Happy with the outcome after all that was put at stake. Here's the link to the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBlowBV9...

Wonderful spotting. Welcome to Project Noah.
Your spotting has been nominated for the Spotting of the Week. The winner will be chosen by the Project Noah Rangers based on a combination of factors including: uniqueness of the shot, status of the organism (for example, rare or endangered), quality of the information provided in the habitat and description sections. There is a subjective element, of course; the spotting with the highest number of Ranger votes is chosen. Congratulations on being nominated!
