Pugnosed Treefrog
Rana arboricola ñata
(smilisca sila )
A smiling Gray Treefrog.
They are found in the eastern half of the United States.
According to Tn Watchable Wildlife they are a tree-dwelling species that is rarely on the ground.
It has sticky toe pads to help in clinging to tree bark and other surfaces.
They can change color depending on where they are (in a tree, on the ground) or if they are cold. The underside of their thigh is a yellow-orange.
..... flattened against a rock, presumably this is his "you can't see me" stealth mode. It works quite well.
While approaching the front door of our home a couple of nights ago, this treefrog was right at eye level with me on the wall. So, I ran inside, grabbed my camera gear, and got a few shots. ...then I left him alone!
His ability to stick to the stucco finished wall and just sit there is really astounding. It is not a tacky surface, at all.
Beautiful creature.
Built for Vignweek 2025 day 5 with the theme "upside down" and also Frogust. Fun fact: there is at least one frog in each one of my Vignweek builds this year- go see if you can find them all!
Thanks for checking it out,
