Gray tree frog (Hyla versicolor.) I had initially identified this as a toad, based on its rough skin. My 13 year old, however, pointed out that it couldn't be a toad, as toads can't hop more than an inch. This little guy leapt a good 15 inches from the picnic table to the patio wall. A quick consultation with Professor Google confirmed that my 13 year old is smarter than I am. Sigh.

Hyla versicolor can be gray, green, or light brown and has the ability to slowly change its color.

Cope's or regular? We'll never know.

I found this gray treefrog on the front screen door when I went to take the dogs out at 2:30 am.
