Glass frog eggs. Close-up of the eggs of a glass frog (family: Centrolenidae) on a leaf. Like all amphibians, frogs require water for their reproductive stage. The eggs seen here are laid above a water source, and after hatching the tadpoles will be washed down into the water where they will develop into frogs. Photographed in lowland rainforest in the Choco Biological Region, Ecuador.
