The Gray Treefrogs have really begun to take an interest in my little decorative pond. I have numerous egg masses already.
I felt pretty bad for the female shown in this picture as two males were literally fighting and kicking at each other for breeding rights.
It doesn't look it from the photo, but treefrogs blend in with the mud REALLY well. If it wasn't for their extremely loud calls, they would be next to impossible to locate at night.
We spotted this gray treefrog on a building on ahot summer night in St. Louis County, Minnesota.

I was taking a picture of a rose when this little guy jumped out in front! Talk about a good photobomb!
In the tropics, your never without company. Not even while sitting on the can. This is a very large species of tree frog, this one was around 4 inches in length.

When frogs breed, the males grasp onto the females using their forelimbs. This mating posture is referred to as amplexus. This pair of barking treefrogs was found in amplexus on a warm fall night in Southwest Georgia. The male will hold on until the female lays her eggs.

Thanks to Adaire for letting me photograph her froggies at Ecology Camp.
The treefrogs were singing their heads off - such a loud sound for such little guys - seeking mates. (Chris' hand)

I have a Treefrog nursery on my back porch. Every night I see the same 3 little treefrogs hanging out.
I found this Gray Treefrog perched on the siding corner of our house under the house flood lights catching bugs as they landed on the house walls.
FYI:The gray treefrogs are the most remarkable species of frog or toad in Oklahoma at changing color. A frog may be any of many shades of gray, green, brown, or nearly black. Most gray treefrogs have an irregularly star-shaped blotch on the back, and a light spot beneath the eye is characteristic. The concealed surface of the thigh is bright yellow to orange with scattered dark ink spots. Yellow pigment extends down the leg and onto the toes of many individuals. Males develop dusky to nearly black throats during the breeding season.

In just over a week I'm visiting the fabulous El Questro Wilderness Park in the Kimberley region, where this photo was taken in 2011. This is part of the Australian Geographic Society's Scientific Expedition. Before the 2012 trip I've been looking through some photos taken up there and this one was one of my favourites. Roth's tree frogs are one of the common species in the Kimberley, with highly varied markings. The pattern on this individual was especially pretty :-)
