Nice frog! I hope things are not too bad in your area with the bushfires. I feel very upset about all the devastation ongoing in your land every time I see the news.. Posted 5 years ago

  We have had maybe 40 mm of rain in some of the fire areas in the last three days . It felt great and it surtainly dampened down some of the fires along the east coast but not enough to finish them. The total area burned so far in all of Australia is estimated to be 10 million hectares (100000 sq km)
  There are still 100 fires burning in the states of NSW & Victoria but with the rain it is hoped to get on top of them. Now of coarse people become aware that the potential for many species of flora and fauna might become extinct, especially species with a limited distribution. It has also made many people change their way of thinking and realise that it might be a good idea to take the global warming issue much more serious. Posted 5 years ago
