As you can see, green paddy frogs [Hylarana erythraea] are a diverse bunch. They typically range from golden-green to dark olive in color. However, it’s still extremely unusual to find a blue specimen of this species. These frogs were all found together on lily pads in the Philippines, and the blue frog was found to be in good health despite it’s rare color mutation. Images by Kenneth S. Kennedy.
