Litoria verreauxi
A little tiny very light coloured frog. About 3cm long found in a plant pot. Very good jumper! Stripe beginning at the tip of the snout and passing through the eye before disappearing at the belly. Presumably not always covered in soil as in the picture.
Well this was in some soil, but its normal habitat is near water - ditches, bogs and the like.

That's really cool Ben. I'm no frog expert; if you reckon it's right then it probably is! : )
@ShannaB Haha I looked there too and I looked in my frog field guide book and I'm pretty sure it is one :) I'm happy to be wrong, though I read somewhere they can occur here if the habitat is right
Nice spotting. I just looked up Verraux's Tree Frog on frogs.org.au (http://frogs.org.au/frogs/species/Litori...) and it says they don't occur as far north as Gladstone! Do you reckon for sure that's what it is?
