A gray treefrog that I discovered hiding behind the neck rest of a patio chair. They can change colors fairly quickly. After moving it from the chair and placing it on an adjacent wall with a light color paint, the frog became very pale within a couple of minutes to match the wall.
A Gray Treefrog showed up on our door window last night - so I got my macro lens and flash out, and he posed for a few shots.
This is actually one of the first photos I ever took with my Olympus DSLR. Sara and I were still living in Columbia and the apartment we lived in backed up to a miniature swamp where you would hear the loudest bunch of frogs throughout the whole summer. This one was on the wall right outside our door one evening, so I got a quick shot of him, and then tried to make it look more interesting with some post processing. It makes a pretty cool background for a computer screen.
A red-eyed treefrog (Agalychnis callidryas), sitting on a leaf of Spathiphyllum friedrichsthalii. This photo was taken in a swamp literally crawling with frogs... They gather together for only a few days each year to mate.
Seen on the Nature Day hike at Loblolly Marsh.

Check out this little treefrog spotted at Port Louisa National Wildlife Refuge in Iowa. Have you seen any lately?

Thanks for all of your comments, faves, and invites. I appreciate them!
A minute or two after this shot, a gecko ran over and ate this tiny frog...
Newly-emerged tadpoles. I had originally thought these were Narrowmouth toads, Gastrophryne carolinensis, but my one transforming tadpole on 8/29/09 is clearly a Gray Treefrog, Hyla chrysoscelis. This individual, unfortunately, died right as it was transforming, but the species is clear.
These newly-emerged tadpoles are 4-5 mm long.
Very difficult to photograph as it was sitting about 1.5 m above my head... Hence the quite bad quality. But at least we found it.
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.
There was a lot of amphibians around the oil palm plantation at night. If anyone can help with this ID that would be great! In Kiburara, Uganda
What could possibly entice five birders into one "spot-a-pot" at once? Tree Frogs! One of our group had found two little Tree Frogs inside one....we all had to go in to look. Outside for a picture and then returned to the safety and comfort? Glad it was a rainy day and no one was around.,,,,,birders can be thought of as odd enough already :)
