At this point he was probably blind (only temporarily!) from the flash firing so often. He was obviously perturbed by my presence but didn't dare move and reveal himself from his perfect camouflage.

Hyla squirella | Albany, Dougherty County (Coastal Plain), Georgia, USA | 24 May 2011

The Squirrel Treefrogs in this series hide during the day in a space under a wood-siding-shingle of a house. At dusk they come out to hunt in the back yard of the residence. Their comings and goings are very regular. There are more than 20 at the residence. They are outstanding climbers. It is not currently known where their tadpole stage is spent at this location (shallow standing water required for 25-55 days). Classification: Amphibia, Anura, Hylidae, Hyla squirella

I was slogging around in the marsh when I found this cutie today. He was so nice that he let me hold him briefly! Found near Hills bridge in Anne Arundel County.

They eat several additional species of native frogs, lizards, and many types of invertebrates. Many homeowners in Florida report that Cuban Treefrogs appear to have replaced native treefrogs as the dominant frog found around their homes.
