    Default Wierd and wonderful

    Hi, Please could someone help me identify this frog.
    He makes these wierd and wonderful sounds.
    At first we thought it could be a bird, it makes three different distinct sounds.
    First like a wood pecker then a squawk and then a normal frog croak.
    I'd love to know what type of frog he is...

    I believe it may be a Common River Frog (Amietia angolensis)

    Common is mainly referring to it being seen more often than other species most likely. There are a lot of species here in America that are seen quite often that have very interesting calls like Leopard Frogs.
