Found camouflaged on a branch by Bryce, while Dad was in the nearby brush searching for box turtles. Western MA
Sierran Treefrog (Pseudacris sierra) a/k/a Sierra Chorus Frog. There has been a debate raging about classification of this Treefrog for more than a decade. Is the familiar Pacific Treefrog one species (Pseudacris regilla) or three (P. regilla, P. sierra and P. hypochondriaca)? I put the question to USGS frog researcher working in Yosemite. His answer: "It depends on whether you ask a taxonomist [one] or a molecular biologist [three]." What's a poor photographer to do when the academics can't sort it out? Sweetwater Marsh. Buttterfly Valley Botanical Area. Plumas National Forest. Near Quincy. Plumas Co., Calif.

Shot as the last rays of the day permeated a bit into his burrow. 1/40s exposure, ISO 1600 on the 40D with fill flash from the 580ex, uncropped image. I had to fully extend the legs and center column of my manfrotto tripod to get this height, and then manually focus while looking through liveview. I shot some with direct flash as the main light source also, but his environment gets lost in those.

Im not sure but am wondering if this is a Gray Treefrog. Taken through the glass of my back door. Mt Juliet, Tn.
I was driving at a snail's pace down a back road - looking for warblers. I noticed this knot in the tree looked weird - so I pulled over and took a closer look. I was pleasantly surprised to see a gray tree frog! I went back later and he had moved on :)

The mottled appearance helps to break up the outline of this frog so that it can better blend in with the moss covered tree trunks. Found during a day hike from Amatuk to Waratuk falls, Guyana.
For a greater selection of photos which include different angles and species ask by pm to be added to my friend's list.
Yesterday the tire flew off my minibus, I cut the head off a pit viper and I was banned from a commercial flight by associating with a narco-trafficker. Today I am bushwhacking through the jungle in the remote trail-less backwaters of Guyana, waist deep in water and praying to make it through the rest of the day alive. What will tomorrow bring? God only knows. The adventure starts here- pbertner.wordpress.com/.
When I got home from pottery class tonight I went to let the dogs out back and found a little tree frog sitting on the stormdoor window.
A large Cope's treefrog (Hyla chrysoscelis) from Chicagoland. I find these on roads running through old rolling oak savannah on rainy nights.
This is the first one of these beautiful little creatures that I've seen in years. They are only an inch long and normally camouflaged against their background being able to change color to match the tree bark or foliage they are on. However, they haven't figured out how to match the color of my white back door! I hear them singing from the trees and shrubs in my neighborhood quite often, especially before, during and after a light rain. Note the suction cup toe pads for climbing!
Nubby the dumpy (white's) treefrog... He is actually greener than this but he is under a yellowish light.

The texture of their skin is just amazing. Very cool irises too. It's a Mexican Treefrog, Smilisca baudinii, caught in Golden Stream Corridor Preserve, Belize
Cuban Treefrog (Osteopilus septentrionalis)
This adorable baby frog is one of the most ecologically destructive invasive species in Florida. Cuban Treefrogs are native to the Caribbean and introduced to Florida, sometime in the 1920s. They eat anything smaller than themselves including our smaller native treefrogs, lizards, and small snakes. Their skin has a sticky secretion that is very irritating to human mucus membranes and can cause a burning sensation that can last more than an hour. Photographed with a Canon EOS 7D, Sigma 150mm Macro Lens, and Sigma EM-140 DG Ring Flash.
Smooth-skinned and equipped with goofy clown hands, the bird-voiced treefrog is easily confused with her close relatives, the gray treefrogs, save for her relatively small stature and distinctly avian voice. A devout believer in the summer fling, when a suitor sings 'wit-wit-wit-wit' from shrubs surrounding temporary pools our heroine heads out for night of passion that leads to more goofy little treefrogs.
Hyla avivoca, Illinois.
