six_armed_seastar (Luidia_penangensis) @ Chek Jawa

This is another shot of the sea star i took at CJ. I geotagged this!
so go to the flickr page and you can see where it's taken..

the location might be a bit off due to time synchro of my camera with the GPS satellite but from what i can c its pretty accurate..
but flickr got the name wrong, it says

Taken in Kampong Pasir Ris, North East
which i guess is the nearest human inhabited place in their maps.

Comments?

Pretty cool for a $180 device that fits in ur pocket yah?

four-lined tree frog (Polypedates leucomystax)

One of the little critters we found near the toilet at Chek Jawa, P. Ubin.. I guess it was a dry spell and it was finding shade and moisture near the toilet.
I think its a
Copper-cheeked_Frog_(Rana_chalconota)
But I am no expert in this field.

Edit:

Hmm Ivan has suggested a different ID for this animal so have changed the title to

four-lined tree frog (Polypedates leucomystax)

Thanks Ivan! Would more photos at different angles help in your ID?
