Polka-dot Treefrog (Boana punctata) from the Peruvian Amazon.

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.

I found this squirrel treefrog under a log in a cypress swamp. Squirrel treefrogs are extremely variable but unlike pinewoods treefrogs they have no spotting on the thigh.

Grey Treefrog (Hyla chrysoscelis or versicolor). Franklin Co., PA. August 12, 2008.

This is the same frog Rattlin Antler posted earlier and in a different environment. Interestingly, the color pattern looks completely different as it's camo acts like a chameleon, only a bit slower.
