Many treefrogs lay their eggs on leaves over small ponds as a protection against aquatic predators. When the eggs hatch, the larvae fall into the water and continue their development.

I have white gloves on and I'm holding this Red-eyed Treefrog (or Leaf Frog), Agalychnis callidryas. Tortuguero National Park, Costa Rica.
My first Green Treefrog I've ever seen in person. I drove 200 miles just to find one of these and luckily I found two! One of the coolest frogs in Missouri and the color is unmatched.
A recently hatched brood of Gladiator Treefrog (Hypsiboas boans) tadpoles shelters in a tiny side pool of a rainforest stream.
This is one of the largest species of treefrogs; it inhabits the Costa and Amazonian regions.

Dark eared treefrog (Polypedates macrotis) - Danum Valley, Malaysia
In my time in Borneo I came across just over 30 species of frogs, and I was lucky enough to be able to get photos of most of them. This here is a Dark eared treefrog (Polypedates macrotis), my field guide says it is found in both primary and disturbed forests and ranges throughout Borneo and has also been reported from Sumatra and the South Phillipine Islands. I would see these frogs sporadically during my time in Borneo, definitely one of the more common species.
