Of the three gray Treefrogs in the pool, one was dark brown, one was the usual gray, and the third, seen here on Izzy's back, was almost pure white. Apparently they can change color somewhat, because later in the day this same frog was back to the regular gray.
The green treefrog is one of Oklahoma’s most distinctive frogs. This moderately large treefrog has a slender body and smooth skin that is bright green. Another distinctive feature is a white or light yellow lateral line outlined in gray that extends from below the eye to the groin.
These treefrogs and toads were all gathered in a pool just off the side of the road in my neighborhood after a torrential downpour from a tropical storm.
I know that this looks almost exactly like the shot next to it, but I just couldn't pick between the subtle differences of both shots.
Rogers, Benton County, Arkansas, USA
Thanks to Adaire for letting me photograph her froggies at Ecology Camp.

Young gray treefrog. Lots around the yard this year (as you've probably noticed with all of the photos.) Probably because of the new beaver ponds out back.
Pseudacris cadaverina, the California Treefrog. A real charmer with a perm grin. Either that or he (?) was actually smiling for the camera... "Oh - you just want a photo? Well then - you've definitely chosen my best side..."
