Interesting list of amphibians, I’ll look them up in some depth, see if there’s any they’ve missed.
Thanks for the link, Bubba…
:)
Must be early stages.
I can’t find any species
can’t find my address or even my postcode area and the full species list is a 404.
I suspect it could be because I didn’t allow the google script.

It is very early stages.

Could be, but I notice when I just input the postcode, I “ended up” on a minesite 40 miles away :P!! There were no amphibians and I didn’t recognise most of the plants…which stands to reason as that’s a different scrub at that minesite…
So I put in my physical address. They missed a few of the wrens and finches but, as they say, the site is under construction…

If you want to put up your postcode I’ll check it for you.
Maybe I should just submit my flickr and let them work it out.

They have a wedgetail sighting within 5 km of me. Who’d of thunk it.
gosh, that link you gave me back from a search for my postcode.. ended up around 50 Km south-ish.
Records for: LOT 62 Lockhart Rd, Benerembah NSW 2680, Australia

I think I saw a bit where if it did not give an accurate location because it is not yet in the database, you can fine tune it to pinpoint your location. I’m not sure how I feel about have my actual street address displayed though.
also, Firefox still didn’t work so yes, it uses google map/street/satellite type data… Safari worked.

It’s probably the closest contributer. Start sending.

It would only occur that way if.. records were available of what was actually recorded at your street address.
Many farms are observed by botanists and biologists etc.. but few backyards are.Google has your street address anyway+ a picture of your gate from a moving car.. mine is just a blur of shrubbery. Something out of the Knights of Ni.
I just used the hand and dragged the map up to my place but reords don’t show unless you put in your location more exactly.. A postcode will only show those records which have had that postcode displayed within the record itself. Other records may not have the postcode but will have the nearest town/village or within the designated radius from a designated lat, Long.. ie: http://biocache.ala.org.au/occurrences/searchByArea?q=taxon_name:Acacia%20brachybotrya|-34.2112533|146.0508434|5Dinetta said:

Didn’t I say? Must not have Submitted…when I put in my physical address, they had 10 amphibians and I am going to go and ID them further, am sure I’ve had every one of those 10 amphibians hopped through my lounge room this wet…one little half inch feller even had a gold leaf pattern!
might give it a look when I get Broadband speed. Sounds fancy to date.
This is a visitor to my yard that I rarely see. More often hear. On this day I was alerted to the dozing southern boobook owl by the honeyeaters of several species making a racket. 
I can use google earth to pinpoint the Lat and long of the tree it is in.

Fantastic photo, RB!
What a handsome bird.
:) somedays I get out on the right side of the bed and something good happens that I get to treasure. :)
He/she looks too cute to be trouble, lol!
Good photo, RoughBarked… :)
gorgeous shot Roughy! I went to a friends house on Saturday and she had a Frogmouth in her Callistemon… same there, the honeyeaters let us know.
