Dink or Tink Frog

This is one of the frog really easy to hear in Costa Rica but extremly hard to find it. this frog is small about 2 to 3 cm, sounds like a "metalic hammer" when you hit something with a hammer.

Usually you can find on the surface of big leaves, or in the bract of bromeliad leaves.
The one in the pic is a male, you can notice the vocal sac and this picture I took at night which is the moment of the main activity.

Enjoy it so much....
Michael
