I found this green treefrog (Hyla cinera) greeting the morning sun while looking for dragonflies. There was a smaller one below him on another leaf. No dragonflies this morning, but I'll take this fine looking fellow any day!
Perfect for the holiday season: a neotropical frog from our Ecuador field site that is more commonly referred to as the Christmas Treefrog!
Agalychnis callidryas
An iconic species of the rainforests of central and south America, these treefrogs are large and stunning.
Surprised to see this tiny tree frog on the second floor of the nature center building!! Oh that adorable speckled belly! The naturalist there told us the tree frogs in that area are Cope’s, not Gray; they can only be differentiated by their vocalizations.
Es una rana arbórea nocturna que habita los bosques húmedos y húmedos de las tierras bajas cerca de las piscinas rocosas poco profundas, y los bancos de la corriente. Puede sobrevivir en el bosque secundario, pero generalmente necesita una buena cobertura vegetal. En Costa Rica, se ha observado en áreas relativamente abiertas.

Very cooperative frog, if you look at the EXIF data you'll see this is actually a 15 second exposure.

Hyla versicolor
A stunning individual found active during a heavy thunderstorm in southeast Michigan. This population contains a high amount of green coloration amongst individuals, which helps them match the mossy bark of the wooded swamps they inhabit.

Pseudacris Sierra
Often heard but rarely seen. It's about an inch long. My Internet searching says this is a male because of its dark throat.
Here is a link to some wonderful sound recordings:

I don't think I have seen a grey one before.
but I only had my 500mm with me, I think it turned out .
Pseudacris sierra, or Sierran Treefrog, in its tadpole stage resting in Picchetti Pond. Today I noticed that this one barely moved when I moved a stick towards it. This species is quite common in this area, especially after our rainy winter.
I was checking on some Tradescantia pallida cuttings that I have starting in a mason jar out in my screened in porch when I had this funny feeling that I was being watched.
This half-grown Cuban had secreted itself down the mouth of the jar within the foliage just above the water line, and looked quite cozy in there. It can get pretty dry here in this part of Florida in the fall, so this looks like the perfect place for one of these to hide. It jettisoned itself out and into the ground cover I have out there after I took a few frames, so I have to keep my eye out for him now.
