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.
One of our "mailbox frogs" had been positioned on the mailbox door when I retrieved today's delivery and allowed a photo shoot. Unfortunately, I suspect it's a juvenile Cuban Treefrog (Osteopilus septentrionalis), which is an invasive species. Indicators are large eyes, warty skin, white stripe near the mouth, and large toe pads. I'm awaiting ID confirmation. Among other things, Cuban Treefrogs feed on this area's native frog population.
It's now clear to me that one way the frogs get into the mailbox is through a rather large gap between the hinged door and the box itself.
Since this little Hyla sp. did not vocalize, I cannot tell if it is the Northern or Southern Gray Treefrog. Both species occur in Cape May, New Jersey. Night of September 25, 2017.
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.
Tonight was a great night to get out and look for local herps! We helped this gray treefrog off the road.
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.

I have a Treefrog nursery on my back porch. Every night I see the same 3 little treefrogs hanging out.

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..."
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.
