Squirrel treefrog (Hyla squirella) photographed in Jean Lafitte State Park, Marrero, Louisiana during the National Geographic BioBlitz.
Cope's treefrogs (Hyla chrysoscelis) are somewhat common in the region where I live. They are seldom seen though unless you look carefully on roads going through habitat on rainy nights. This is a youngster.
Taken during our airboat tour. The guide stopped to give us some history about the plant this little treefrog was hanging onto and it wasn't until later that we even noticed the guy. My sister held the stem of the plant still while I took the photo.

grey treefrog, green phase. these are about the size of the first knuckle on my pinkie finger. once you learn to spot them, though, they're everywhere in the long grass by the frog pond.
Same as previous frog shot but cropped a bit with slightly warmer processing.
I believe this is an Eastern Gray Tree Frog, Hyla versicolor. I found a couple of these out there and didn't realize they can change from the above color to bright green in a short period of time. Pretty cool! At the time I figured they were different species of frogs.
Love this species! This is actually a captive individual, but he was collected as a tadpole two years ago (in Jewett, NY). Even though he is a "gray treefrog", he is almost always a nice bright green. Gray treefrogs can be any color from dark brown to gray to green to almost white!
