Thanks to Steve Hale for the ID help! From Steve's email:

It is the common tree frog of Arizona and are usually found in nooks and cracks above the water along streams up to about 7,000 feet. They are real variable in color; grays, browns and salt and pepper, rarely with a splash of green, leading to an easy way to remember their name "Hyla are-any-color."

These hybrids are typically a one-way creation: calling male Green Treefrogs perched at wetland edges intercept female Barking Treefrogs as they try to get to wetland centers, where the males of their species generally are.

Coexisting with what I think is Pseudacris regilla in the same area (within a meter or 2).

Gray Tree-frogs, Wood Frogs & Spring Peepers can freeze solid in the winter. Their ability to withstand the cold gives them a jump (sorry) on the breeding season. They prefer ponds and lakes surrounded by low-laying vegetation. They lay their eggs singly, attatching them to plants under the water.

There are two identical looking species of gray treefrog that can only be separated by their calls or genetic analysis: Gray Treefrog (Hyla versicolor) and Cope's Gray Treefrog (Hyla chrysoscelis).

Singing tree frog taken at the Brucemore pond tonight.

Huddled on a green ash leaf. This was the day for gray tree frogs.

You rarely get to see these unless you're looking for them (even though you'd probably recognize their call if you live in their range), so it was a treat to find them out on the road. I didn't even know they had such spectacular undersides!
