Not something you will see every day.
I always hear these frogs, they always makes a noise when it rains. Only when it rains or when it is about to rain.

Was about to plant a plant when I found this one. First one I found after 6 years in this house.

Aint seen 1 of those yet :wth:

Hier by my in Kenridge is hulle volop.
Altyd so bang ek spit hulle raak. Dan skree hulle vreeslik.

Strange looking little bugger .... almost like the frog version of a puffer fish!

Daai outjie lyk nogals upset

Ek dink nie hy is eetbaar nie...

It is very soft, feels like a bag filled with water.

Also well camouflaged ... I think the first you'll know he's there when you hear the "pop" after standing on him.

Turned out to be a Namaqua Rain Frog and not a Cape Rain Frog

Hmmm.... quite an ugly fella, i'm not too keen on frogs, but I know they have their place in the cycle of things. More importantly I find it interesting that you were planting a plant Pieter, did'nt know that gardening was your thing..... that's good though...

Hehe .... plant a 'brood boom' (bread tree) next to it and you'll never go hungry!

First the ground beans, then the butter tree then the bread tree.
The I can have grondboontjiebotter op brood.
