Also been seeing them on milkweed plants, hollyhocks and other plants in our garden. Garden is next to a bog and a pond. Northern Wisconsin

Green Treefrog, small - about 4 cm in length

Breeding March to October; lays eggs in multiple clusters (about 300-1,000 eggs in one night) near the surface of the water, often attached to vegetation. Eat beetles, crickets, caterpillars, beetle larvae, stinkbugs, other small invertebrates.

Stream Frog (Litoria barringtonensis) from the rainforested hills above Coffs Harbour in northern NSW, Australia

They've changed their latin name to: Dryophytes cinereus from Hyla cinerea. They are roaring at night by the creek and pond behind our house. This little guy was perched in the wild blackberries at the wetlands last week. North Georgia

A Green Tree Frog that I photographed last month at Huntley Meadows in Alexandria, VA.

Some of you all wanted me to post more snakes or frogs before "12 Days of Christmas Butterflies" begin - so here's one of our native Green treefrogs against red flowers in my Georgia yard. I shot this cutie with my 100mm macro lens. Can you all believe it's only 2 weeks till Christmas??!!!

Little green treefrogs and mountain wildflower filled meadows are two of my favorite things. Here is a photo brining the two together that I took in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California this week. This is a Sierran Treefrog

(Pseudacris sierra) they are common frogs that can be found in a variety of habitats and elevations from moubtains to urban valleys. thry can be found wherever there is water. They eat a wide variety of invertebrates. Although green is my favorite color phase in this frog, they can also be brown, brown and green, gray or reddish in coloration.

It can be hard to spot these guys! These native treefrogs often have their footies tucked underneath when perched. This one was at the wetlands. North Georgia

Saw this guy along Little River recently on an old wildflower stem. He was about the size of the tip of my pinkie finger. It was 91o on our car yesterday when we hiked out there - saw a lot of baskettails but none would perch. Summer species like treefrogs are now calling in the night here at home. We also had a snake visitor in our garage - a beautiful Black Racer. @ the wetlands, North Georgia

 

I didn't expect to spot a little Green treefrog hiding in one of my lemon trees yesterday 10-14-24! The hanging lemons are a lot bigger than he is. He spent the night in our garage & is back outside today. If he's still there soon ... he'll be tucked inside for the next few nights (going to 37oF)! Kind of late for these cute Summer treefrogs.

UPDATE 10-17-24: he's still on that leaf inside the garage - hasn't moved ... it hit 37oF this morning - early to be this cold!

blue color is because a genetic aberration means it doesn't have yellow pigment

Green Treefrogs are usually green, but occasionally you find a blue one, or in this case a green-spotted blue one.

 

For those of you who are old enough to remember this, this reminds me of a Peter Paul and Mary song "I'm in love with a big blue frog".

The first county record for this southern tree frog species (Dryophytes cinereus) came from our North Georgia yard. In a good Summer one or two will roost in the daytime on the hefty pink hibiscus stems - usually as the very last plate-sized blossoms are just hanging on.

Green Treefrog (Hyla cinerea)

 

Richland County, South Carolina, U.S.A.

 

According to the IUCN Red List, this species is apparently common, and is likely to remain stable for now.

The frog didn't move when the dragonfly first landed, but when the dragonfly came back a second time the frog became very disturbed.

sometimes they lack yellow pigment due to a genetic aberration, and they are blue rather than green

This picture might have been a bit clearer if I would have remembered to turn on the image stabilizer!

 

My husband was raking up leaves that had fallen over the winter around our deck when out popped this little guy. Of course I had to run into the house and get my camera.

 

We have other frogs in this area but this is the type that we most often see. I love their little fingers with the suction pads. Sorry you can't see them... he crossed his hands together when I got close to him.

This cutie was surrounded by flowers ... but the background is one of my pink solar flowers. We hear a lot of Green treefrogs in our yard but haven't seen many this year. North Georgia

All the rain from cyclone Alfred has made for a lot of happy frogs. This one, a Green Treefrog, was trying to keep me up all night by croaking incessantly :-) At least it was very obliging when I took a few pics.

From Snake Road at LaRue-Pine Hills in Illinois last month.

(Sad & angry about yet another terrorist attack - our hearts break as we pray for the people of France and all those murdered & maimed - including an American father & son. Our progressive governments have turned their backs on God and bent over backwards to rename good evil, and evil good - and this is what results. God help us ... )

De jonge kikkertjes, tussen 15 à 20 mm groot, beginnen bij warm weer volop hun omgeving te verkennen. Ze voelen zich veilig op de bladeren van braamstruiken aan de vijverrand. Uit de hand gefotografeerd.

These little fellas were everywhere at St. Marks and I took about 50 pictures of them. This was one of the few I liked.
