Also sounds like a Uperoleia or Pseudophryne at the start, quiet little chirp before the Litoria gracilenta

Could be another Tusked Frog (Adelotus brevis)? Happy for other suggestions, I could be wrong.

Hi, I can hear Mixophyes fasciolatus (https://www.frogid.net.au/frogs/mixophyes-fasciolatus) in the distance, assume that's what you are wondering about. There is also Litoria dentata (https://www.frogid.net.au/frogs/litoria-dentata) called around
