Field Notes

Habitat:

I found this specimen on an island, in the middle of the river that across my city, a region of transition between the Cerrado and Atlantic Forest.

Notes:

I was trying record the vocalization of a "Rhinella Forg" [ http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/879556005 ], so this specimen appear beside me and stars to feed of the grass.
