Wow Alex, great photo's. You would have your hands full now lol. Thanks for sharing .
Excellent pictures! I love it!! It seems like you had a big jump from pic 20 (Gosner stage 42) to pic 21 (metamorph). I was hoping to see the progression of tail re-absorption, but oh well, it was a great post anyway! Thank you!
I also like how the froglets are very cryptic, assuming they don't have much toxins in them yet so better hang low for the time being! Whereas adults got plenty of toxins in them so they develop warning color plus lots of unken attitude!
next season i'll be sure to show tail resorbtion
