Field Notes

Description:

Always fascinated by these gems of the western ghats. The frogs of the western ghats are one of the beautiful creatures that i feel one has to see them in the wild before they disappear due to habitat loss.
This species of frogs are endangered and endemic to the southern part of the western ghats(localized in nilgirs and silent valley). They are one of the highly decorated frogs. Here you can see the 2 different individuals with different color morphs, both found in the same regions
