Canyon treefrog

This canyon treefrog was clinging to the shady side of a rock outcrop in Molino Canyon, just below the overlook in Pima County, Arizona. This is one of the most heavily pigmented specimens I've seen, but it was well-sheltered, and the cooler such cold-blooded "herps" are, the darker they usually are. Incidentally, a fall from this height would have severely injured a human, let alone a treefrog. Good grip!
