We are looking for community members and groups to Adopt a Frog Monitoring site (or sites) for this year’s frog monitoring season in the Lower Lakes region.

All it takes is a 5 minute recording of the frog species calling and completing a datasheet once per month, from September through to January, at your adopted site.

Lake levels are anticipated to be at higher levels this season so we are hoping to get a good response from the Southern Bell Frog which is listed as Vulnerable under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act. This species is known to breed in times of flooding. Only one male Southern Bell Frog was recorded in the region last season, so let’s hope for more!

Come along to one of these free workshops to learn all about our local frog species and how you can help to monitor our frog populations.

Participants will receive a Lower Murray Frogs Field Guide and Frog call CD and a monitoring information pack.

All ages are welcome!

Workshops will be held at:

Milang Institute, Corner Ameroo and Coxe Streets, Milang. – Tuesday 1st September, 4:00-5:00pm
