Not 100% on the ID. This is the first time I've seen one of these guys.

Clearly very pleased to have been caught. Found around the retention basins being used for the harbor dredging project.

Accidentally flew into our mist net, but was more than happy to sit still for a photo before being released.

Accidentally flew into our mist net as we started to take them down for the day. Very cute and extremely photogenic.

Blood sample was taken and band was placed on before releasing. Found around the retention basins that they're using to hold the sludge from the dredging project.

Followed this guy around for as long as he'd let me. Orange-red around his chin/face makes me think he's a male.

Taken with an iPhone 7 so the quality isn't great, but the colors on this guy are awesome.

Angry munchin’ on some grass. Not too happy to be moved from the middle of the road. Ridges don’t look too pronounced as with an alligator snapping turtle but I could be mistaken.

I was leaving the park when we spotted this chick in the middle of the road (it presumably fell out of the nest). I got out of the car and herded it into some bushes only to realize a hawk had been watching the entire time. Hope he’s doing okay.

It was very difficult to get a decent shot of the gills without uprooting the mushroom, but they were decurrent. Approx 4 cm (1.5 in.) tall with the cap being ~6 cm (2.5 in.) in diameter. Found at the base of a tree.

Poor little guy was found with its wings crushed (it looks as if someone accidentally stepped on it). It was still kickin’ though, so we placed it on some tall grass out of the way of the footpath after the photos were taken.

I know everyone adds pictures of gators, but this was too cute not to share.

There were 2-3 pairs of these guys wandering around. I followed this one for a bit to photograph him/her while they were foraging.
