A grey tree frog (hyla versicolr) lingered a little too long on the ivy last night. It was late morning when I found him right next to the spigot, moist and dripping with condensation as the sprinklers were quenching the dry garden.
(Note, he still has a bit of a butt bump from his tadpole days.)

I was very excited this past Saturday 10 Aug. 2019 to find about a dozen tiny Gray tree frogs on plants and trees close to a frog pond I often visit for dragonfly and frog photos.
I first noticed these amazing little frogs at this location in 2014. I saw them again in late summer 2015, but then poof gone for 2016, 17 and 18. I feared that they had totaly died out. Then Saturday after looking around the trees and plants near the pond I found none and was on my way back to my car when I spotted the first one on a low leaffy plant on the tree line, then I saw another and another all hiding in plain sight.
They have the ability to slowly change their color to the color of whatever they are sitting on which is a very effective camouflage.
Aug 2015, tiny Grey Tree Frogs perched on Arrow Head leaves at a small frog pond near my home outside Marietta Ohio. I have learned to look for the frogs on the plants and trees surrounding the pond as the first tree frogs emerge from tadpoles around mid Aug. In fact the last three photos in this series are of a young tree frog which still hasn't completely absorbed his tadpole tail. These little frogs are about the size of a nickle. They are fascinating and a lot of fun to photograph.

This young grey tree frog (hyla versicolor) was hanging out in the milkweed patch today. The milkweed is loaded with tiny flies and other critters, which I'm sure this little guy loves to eat.
The grey tree frog can change color based on its mood and surroundings. On the big milkweed leaf, he has taken on a shade of green.

This is just one of 7 baby GTFs we found at Sherman Hoffman yesterday.
There is a Gray Tree frog on the Milkweed plants, can you see him?? This image illustrates why most folks walk right by and never eve know they are there. Sometimes you can find 6 or 8 of these little beauties on the milkweed.

Found this critter hiding on my sweet pea trellis.
Large view is recommended.
This Gray Tree Frog quickly hopped from the milkweed to this bush but he wasn't quick enough for me!

A male eastern gray tree frog, in its green color phase, was on the trunk of the red maple next to our deck last evening calling for a mate.

Not the best image, but interesting enough to post, I felt.

A tiny juvenile gray tree frog (Hyla versicolor) stayed a little late on our deck last night. When I moved the grill cover, there he was, very dark green - almost black. After moving him to the box, he turned much lighter, so they must be able to alter their color on demand!! (COOL!) Eventually, he will turn all gray as he gets older.

This is my favorite shot I have of one of the baby GTFs. smaller than my thumbnail. Would have liked some more DOF to play with but the conditions didn't allow for it
