In
the past already a few expeditions to discover the life in the treetops
had found place. These were done with helicopters, zeppelins or
just cutting the trees down.
I was always wondering why these expeditions only showed us a lot
of insects and slow-moving animals. The reason for this is quite
logic. The sound of a helicopter, the size of a zeppelin and especially
cutting a tree down would make the animals run away from that certain
area or tree. By living in the tree as a silent observer, the animals
could learn to know us and may be accept us as a part of their environment.
I practice I was delighted to see my vision was right. |

The
main subject of the expedition was to explore the habitat of the
Harlequin Toad. This time I didn't choose to visit the area during
the rainseason, the wild river from then, was turned into a small
brook. The ideal moment for the Harlequin Toad to breed.
Due to a waterfall in the area the male toad had to produce quite
a noise to attrack a female.
