Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Eastern Smooth Frog sighting in Melbourne on a given day, based on 15 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 8th most-seen of the 9 amphibians we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April and May
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Eastern Smooth Frog in Melbourne on a given day, against under 5% in June to March, the lowest months.
Between 1 and 4 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Eastern Smooth Frog sightings with a recorded time, and about half of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is most active around dawn and dusk.
Only Melbourne, in our data
Melbourne is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Eastern Smooth Frog sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Eastern Smooth Frog is recorded against all the amphibians logged in Melbourne (15 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
