I ran up on these guys while they were mating there were probably 60 of them in this little pond with the males calling and wrestling with females. I had a couple pics where you could see the eggs being laid but didn't put them up. This was quite the experience though.

This first guy was missing a foot! o.o

Very nice. Wish I knew where you were, so I might be able to catch the timing right like you did.
