Greetings

I discovered this guy on my glass door to the deck last night, apparently searching for evening edibles. A compliant subject, I took many photos but it turned out to be one of those strange macro experiences in which none really turned out. If I ever read my manual I might find out why this occasionally happens. In any event he was still here this morning, so more clicks and a few actually worked out pretty well. You may have already guessed, my glass is not really quite this dirty, so a few textures were applied. If you look closely, you'll see a double reflection of his eye and jaw below.

 

For those interested, this is the gray tree frog (Hyla versicolor) of which I have seem green and brown but never a gray specimen. The scientific name addresses this color phenomenon, as does Wikipedia which states: "Dead gray tree frogs and ones in unnatural surroundings are predominantly gray." Seems like the common name might have generated a bit more creativity. About two inches in size, this is one of those creatures that often creates the reaction of "cute."
