Thank you PucaK for the ID! Looks spot on, just sad it is not a native!
Thank you! We are surveying the same sites daily for spotted salamander reproduction, so I am getting to watch the embryos as they grow. It is amazing and beautiful and I can't wait until they hatch!
I would say wood frog eggs!

Yeah, unfortunately I did not get the GPS coordinates of many of the sites I visited in Belize, and the Map Search rarely picks up on those small islands. I think the location is pretty close now.
Karen, it was offshore. I posted a photo of the actual island they were on.
Looks spot on... thanks Larry! And Thanks Maria!
Holy cow, that is one adorable snake! I may be partial to snakes but, I think that eyes of that proportion can make anything look way too cute for it's own good..
Nice spot, Karen! I love spadefoot toads. In my experience, they are one of the hardest anuran species to find (in GA, anyway). Also, they have one of my favorite calls :)
Looks like she was in the process of digging out a nest to lay eggs in.
