Original – The Epirus water frog is a species of amphibian found in Albania and Greece.
Reason
A stunning photograph that's been stable in the article for a few years. The bar's pretty high for amphibian photography, but I think this one is worthy; the photographer, Benny Trapp, has plenty of other great pictures worth looking at. Sadly, the article's underdeveloped, but I'll see what I can do about a partial expansion.

  • Comment. It's such a shame that that vertical blade of grass is so inconveniently positioned – all the more so since it is almost exactly the same colour as the animal's stripe. If I wasn't so opposed to doctoring pictures I might even suggest that someone should airbrush it out. 02:36, 17 October 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.160.86.177 (talk)
  • Support the blade of grass is a bit annoying, but it's out of focus enough for it not to matter to me. Mattximus (talk) 04:05, 18 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
