This juvenile Gray Treefrog (evident in the light green color and the stub of a tail) is a bit bigger than the spring peeper, but because it blends in well with the green leaves, I almost missed it.
via Google Search: The Gray Treefrog (Hyla versicolor) is a common amphibian in the eastern United States, known for its ability to change color to blend with its surroundings. These frogs are typically found in woodlands and near water sources like swamps and ponds. They are arboreal, meaning they live in trees and shrubs, and are nocturnal, spending their days resting and their nights hunting for insects. Gray treefrogs are small, typically 1.6-2 inches (4-5 cm) long.

Hyla andersonii from North Carolina. These small treefrogs inhabit relatively open, shrubby seeps where localized pools of water provide shelter for tadpoles. These habitats are best maintained with fire, and unfortunately fire as a tool for maintaining habitats has largely disappeared outside of lands managed specifically for wildlife. As a result, this species has declined in places that are not burned or otherwise maintained to be open and support grasses and shrubs.
This is a Northern Gray Treefrog (Hyla versicolor), a weird name considering they can be green, brown, or gray. This one was small, about 1.5 inches in length.
Here is another pic of the treefrog I found on the back deck this past Sunday. She is still around today. For a few days she rested in a small tree off the deck and then the last 2 days she has been resting on a lower railing of the deck.

Hyla versicolor
A large adult found on the edge of a hardwood swamp on a rainy night in southeast Michigan.
I took this shot of a Morelet's Treefrog (Agalychnis moreletii) in the Columbia River Forest Reserve in southern Belize, while on an expedition to look for rare cycads in sinkholes and caves. We found 14 of these frogs and they were breeding, we found 2 clutches of eggs and a very pregnant female. This one was sleeping and we could easily see the reticulated palpebral membrane (mesh-like eyelid found in Agalychnis species). It was super cool!
It's a critically endangered frog, so it was great to find this population.

Originally called Pacific Treefrog, Hyla regilla, this species has gone through a confusing naming process. Renamed Pacific Chorus, Pseudacris regilla, it is now named Sierran Treefrog, Pseudacris sierra.
For those interested in the range map of this species, see below:
Unfortunately, this species is non-native and invasive in Florida. It is believed that they arrived in the US by hitchhiking onto shipments of fruit and tropical plants being exported out of Cuba. For such a small innocent-looking amphibian, it causes a lot of trouble. They eat native lizards, frogs, insects, and even small snakes such as the Key Ringneck Snake, a rare species.
These were everywhere when I was down in South Florida. I couldn't believe how many I saw foraging in the bromeliads and other vegetation.

Imbabura treefrog (Hypsiboas picturatus)
This is one of the most beautiful frogs from the Choco in Ecuador, a hotspot of biodiversity, home to thousands of species of plants and animals, many of these endemic and species that waiting to be discovered and home to more than 200 species of amphibians
There is less than 5% of Chocó in Ecuador due to deforestation and palm oil crops, endangering the life present in this part of the world!

First of all, a huge thanks to Phạm Hoàng Tuấn who gave me this and more of his beautiful and unique papers to test them.This is the one that caught my attention more and immediately thought of making the kamiya frog with it, a very special and unique paper with great benefits for origami, I don't wanted to waste it so I pushed my shaping skills to the limit in order to achieve the best possible result and I think I did it, for me this is my best work in terms of shaping, again many thanks to Pham Hoàng Tuân his beautiful paper was perfect for this model.
Special thanks to @reaper_origami who with his amzing fold of this same model inspired me and motivated me to achieve this shaping.

Built for Vignweek 2025 day 5 with the theme "upside down" and also Frogust. Fun fact: there is at least one frog in each one of my Vignweek builds this year- go see if you can find them all!
Thanks for checking it out,

Red Eyed Tree frog. Animal Wonders visited our Christian
Academy today and I was able to
get a few more shots of the creatures that Dan brought to show.
