Ghost Glass Frog In Costa RicaSachatamia ilex is commonly known as either the Ghost Glass Frog or the Limon Giant Glass Frog. They’re extremely shy animals, often only revealing themselves when it’s time to seek a mate.

During mating season, male glass frogs call out to females, but must fight other males who hear the calls and try to invade their territory. When a female finds a mate, she’ll lay her eggs on the underside of a leaf overhanging water, so the tadpoles can drip into water as they hatch.

Night Photography Of Two Red Eyed Tree Frogs On Red FlowerNight photography of red-eyed tree frog pair on red-coned flower. In the cloud forests of Costa Rica, these tree frogs delight in the nighttime hours. An iconic figure, these amphibians are disbursed prominently along the coastal Atlantic lowlands. With their neon-green bodies and red peepers contrasted by the dark forest background, these frogs search for food.

Known in Spanish as Rana Ojos Rojos, or red-eyed frog, these nocturnal carnivores will wait for a meal of insects. Stalking prey concealed by this red flower, they use their long, sticky tongues to get their quarry. This frog picture was captured during a night photography session on our Costa Rica photo tour.

Costa Rican Red Eyed Tree Frog Posing In Wildlife Photography SeA red eyed tree frog poses in beautiful Costa Rica for a wildlife photography shoot. As if knowing it is being photographed, this stark closeup frog picture shows the beautiful coloration of this amphibian. See the blues and yellows along its flank, the bright orange hands and feet, and the huge red eyes giving this frog its namesake.

Many researchers believe the red eyes of this tree frog were adaptations to scare off would-be predators. Called Startle Coloration, when this anuran displays its brightly colored features this may shock a predator long enough for this species to escape. Hard to find wildlife photography opportunities like this anywhere else in the world. Image taken near the Cordillera de Talamanca region of Costa Rica, along the Atlantic lowlands.

Wildlife Photography Of Red Eyed Tree Frog In Costa RicaWildlife photography of a peeking Red eyed tree frog on leaf in Costa Rica. What a spectacular closeup frog picture of this little one! Here its lime green skin are highlighted, allowing it to blend in with its environment. That is when its large red eyes are closed. Tree frogs actually have an extra inner eyelid they use to cover their eyes while also still being able to see. Being approximately 1-3 inches in length gives this frog the ability to hide amongst the vibrant foliage of the cloud forest. Near the Talamanca mountain range of Costa Rica, wildlife photography is at its peak! This diverse biome grants amazing opportunities every moment for unique images and lasting memories.

Green And Black Poison Dart Frog Picture From Costa RicaGreen and Black Poison Dart frog picture during a wildlife photo tour in Costa Rica. Going by numerous monikers such as Mint Dart frog, Green and Black Arrow frog, and to frog hobbyists as the Costa Rican Auratus, these amphibians are poisonous indeed. Though carrying enough toxin to make a human heart stop beating, its poison is not strong enough to penetrate unbroken skin.

This up close and personal frog picture details the mint green and black skin of this anuran, as well as the sucker-like discs on its toes to aid in climbing. Found prevalently in Costa Rica, this frog portrait was captured near Cordillera de Talamanca.

Red Eyed Tree Frog Picture While Perched On Red FlowerRed eyed tree frog picture while sitting atop red coned flower. Normally these frogs are nocturnal, choosing to sleep on the underside of a forest leaf for safety during the day. When the rainy season hits, these frogs spring into action, searching for food and mates day and night.

Here we see this anuran, belonging to the order of tailless amphibians, perched on this forest flower. To put it in perspective, the largest of the species are the females at twice the size of the males. Even then, she may reach up to 2.7 inches. Most of the males will be just above 2 inch in length. An amazing closeup frog picture shot during one of our wildlife photo tours in Costa Rica.

Just Hanging Out Red Eyed Tree Frog PictureRed eyed tree frog picture closeup of little one just hanging out. Many people think of frogs as hopping about. These semiarboreal amphibians actually walk hand over hand through the cloud forests of Costa Rica. In this photo, the details of how it climbs so easily are on display. Those sucker-like disks on its hands and feet allow this frog to climb and roam securely through the forest growth. Acting like suction cups, this frog can really stick around when it needs to. It can sleep on leaf-bottoms and scale entirely vertical forest plants. Wildlife photography image taken during our Costa Rica photo tours.
