No problem! I have a field guide for the Yucatan peninsula so that makes it a lot easier :) Jealous you found a milk frog, they are so beautiful!

Thank you so much Ashley for the identification. I almost didn't put it up thinking it was a juvenile milk frog, but then when I looked up the juveniles of Milk Frogs, they didn't really look the same. Thank you Neil, love all your comments!

Nice one, Ashley. I couldn't quite nail down an exact ID. Some similar to this, but the pointed snout is something I couldn't match. And cool spotting, Lauren. Some interesting frog in that part of the world.

Yours is a pretty pale individual, you can see the faint blotches on his back that are normally brown in these species. Pretty little guy!
