Green Treefrog (Hyla Cinerea) The Florida Panhandle, Niceville, FL
This is another individual I found at the same location, that was quite bright green compared to the first one I photographed.

I have a Treefrog nursery on my back porch. Every night I see the same 3 little treefrogs hanging out.
How can a treefrog be cute? Perhaps it only seems so to a naturalist. The gray treefrog is only an inch or a bit more as an adult. This one was only 3/8-inch - - - obviously a new hatchling of the year. It could have sat on my thumbnail with room to spare. I'm not sure how I even saw it sitting motionless on the leaf of a spicebush. It was very fat. Catching insects on the spicebush must be easy.

Costa Rica CRO6
Hyla versicolor/chrysoscelis, Vernon County Wisconsin, 15 May 2018.
Observed sitting on blacktop parking lot during the middle of the afternoon on a sunny day.
Found this beauty in the spout of a watering can. When I filled it, water refused to come out. I gently poked this Great Grey Tree Frog (Hyla versicolour) until she ended up swimming, then tipped her out. Placed her on our fountain where she blended in rather well.
This cute little immature Gray Treefrog, Hyla versicolor, was hiding on a leaf at Dave Small's place in Athol, Massachusetts.
a little short of inspiration today i asked Bill to pick something for me to draw. "TREE FROG!" was his answer.

This canyon treefrog was clinging to the shady side of a rock outcrop in Molino Canyon, just below the overlook in Pima County, Arizona. This is one of the most heavily pigmented specimens I've seen, but it was well-sheltered, and the cooler such cold-blooded "herps" are, the darker they usually are. Incidentally, a fall from this height would have severely injured a human, let alone a treefrog. Good grip!
