Mark, the Cuban Treefrog (Osteopilus septentrionalis) changes colors, not typically to blend into an environment, but based on temperature and mood. This is similar to chameleons, who often communicate with one another through their flashy displays. Interestingly, the treefrog's skin is fused to his skull, an adaptation that minimizes water loss. Also, so invasive is this species that if you get caught selling one in Hawaii (where the these frogs have colonized Oahu), you could wind up in jail and paying fines of up to $25,000!
Mark lives in captivity after being rescued from what would have been an ill-fated trip stowing away on a greenhouse shipment.

This shot was taken along the shore of Lake Michigan. The tadpoles were removed from their shallow pond and placed in a 3" X 2" X 2" aquarium made from microscope slides, photographed, and returned to their pond.
You gota love them , they just sit around and become pets, but just when they become part of the family they disappear .
Found in tropic areas of Australia and PNG.
I enjoyed giving my 105 mm lens some exercise with this pic :)
We have two gray treefrog species (Cope’s Gray Treefrog and Gray Treefrog) which are identical in appearance and can only be distinguished by their call. Since this juvenile gray treefrog chose to remain silent, we will just have to settle on “gray treefrog” for identification. This little guy was less than an inch in length and is resting on a leaf.
