Recently had my palm trees trimmed and this big guy came plopping out - scared the yard guys! Apparently this 5 inch guy was the largest they had ever seen in Florida. To see how it was processed, check out my blog at www.digitalladysyd.com/?p=3032.

Found alive on the road, but hopping towards the highway last night on my way home from work. I'd never seen nor heard a Gray Treefrog in this immediate vicinity, having lived here the majority of my life.

This fellow has a number of common names; around here he's the gray tree frog, Hyla versicolor, Big for a tree frog, this one is close to 2 inches long. We've lost the peepers around here, and the bullfrog and the American toad - all gone with the great amphibian die-off, Only the occasional green frog. But we have a lot of the gray tree frogs, and now, in early July, they are squalling their heads off.
I mean loud, son, loud.

While picking the dying blooms from flowers out of the garden/train layout, this little guy jumped onto my hand. We always take baby pictures of all the creatures in our garden. So now we have Toads, Frogs and Tree Frogs in the Garden.
Taken with Sony Zeiss 85mm f1.4 on Sony alpha55, Taronga Zoo Sydney. We were there for a work function - popped a few photos on the way home.

Overwinters in groups under loose bark and in tree holes. Breeds in shallow, temporary pools of water that lack fish, including marshes, wet flatwoods, and flooded ditches; prefers open wetlands.
