This is a typical Gray Treefrog, Hyla versicolor. We found it on a sunny hillside in rural farmland.
Gray Treefrog
Scientific name:
Hyla chrysoscelis and Hyla versicolor
Features:
Gray treefrogs are Missouri’s most common species of treefrog. Two species of gray treefrogs occur in Missouri: Cope’s gray treefrog, Hyla chrysoscelis, and the eastern gray treefrog, Hyla versicolor. There is always a large, white marking below each eye. Large, adhesive toe pads are present on fingers and toes.
Color:
May be gray, greenish-gray or brown. Bright green specimens are
often seen. The inside of each hind leg is washed with yellow-orange.
Size:
Average from 1 ¼ to 2 inches in head-body length.
Habitat:
Forest-dwelling
Breeding:
Late May and early June in fishless, woodland ponds.
Call:
These two species are nearly identical in appearance and are best separated by their calls. Cope’s gray treefrog sounds like a buzzer, while the eastern gray treefrog has a birdlike, musical trill.
Information Taken from:
I know frogs are not as popular as bugs, this isn't one of my usual subjects, and this isn't one of my best photos, but this little frog was just too nice to pass up.
I found him/her hopping from leaf to leaf on the side of the trail I was walking on. It was probably less than an inch long (this was taken with the 135mm on a few extension tubes, and cropped quite a bit) and was a beautiful bright green color that the flash destroyed somewhat.
I have never seen a frog like this, usually I just see brownish toads around, I've never seen a tree frog. Is it even a tree frog? Anyone know the species?
Hyla cinerea, North Carolina. I never used to hear or see this species in the piedmont, however I have been hearing them near the house starting this spring.

Nog een boomkikkertje. Ik vind ze erg moeilijk te fotograferen omdat ze vaak tussen de bladeren van braamstruiken zitten. Deze kon ik met mn hoekzoeker vanaf een laag standpunt fotograferen, zittend tussen de (stekelige) takken van de braamstruiken. Hierbij er voor zorgend dat mijn schaduw over de kikker viel. Doordat de zon wel het veldje bescheen op de achtergrond kreeg ik toch een egale achtergrond. Alle schrammen op mijn armen zijn dit dan wel weer waard

Folded from a 50x50cm sheet of double tissue paper
This is my second attempt in making the model. In my first attempt i used two glued sheets of ORIGAMIDO paper and i realized that the glue added to thickness of the paper.
Even though i used worse paper this time, I'm pretty impressed with the result

Gray Treefrog in our garden. Since putting in a little pond we've had at least two species of frogs show up. I think these are my favorite because in the spring, when the night time temperatures begin to average 65 they start breeding and their conversation is such a wonderful ruckus! My complete photo archive is available here.
I was in my backyard birding right before the sun went down when I spotted this little guy in the hedgerow at the back of the property. I had to stick my head in the branches to get the shot. This really made my day! When I lived in Illinois I hunted these for years with no luck. Greenville County, South Carolina
