I almost trod on this frog as I was walking home on February 27th, as it
crossed the footpath in front of me. After I'd taken some footage and
put my camera away, I notice it had hopped into the road and looked
likely to meet a grisly fate under the wheels of a passing car, so I
picked it up and carried it to the other side. It thereupon tried to
climb a vertical concrete wall, before giving up on that and sitting
bewildered for a while in the middle of the pavement, where it was
almost squashed by several passers-by. I picked it up again, and found
an area of long grass and undergrowth, where I put it down, hoping it
was a safe haven from the traffic.
Filmed with the infrared setting on my Panasonic HC-W850 camcorder.

My husband saw one hopping on to the pavement the other night. He went back to check it was off the road, and it had gone. Great infra-red footage!
