Hyla andersonii
May, 2011. New Jersey.
This beautiful treefrog species inhabits swamps and bogs in the pine barrens of New Jersey, Florida, and the Carolinas. It is listed a state Threatened species in New Jersey.
Found along mountain stream in Oso Canyon in Santa Barbara County, CA. I think it is Pseudacris cadaverina. Can someone confirm?
Coexisting with what I think is Pseudacris regilla in the same area (within a meter or 2).
This little guy eventually climbed on to my camera and sat there for a minute or two. I went inside the house to wait him out. When I was a kid, I wouldn't hesitate to pick one of these up but since I've gotten a little older, I don't too much want to touch things that could stick to me if they wanted to. There's just something about that I don't care for. I'm not scared of them I just don't want to have to handle them if I don't have to.
Cozy on some Pothos. This is the usual daytime resting spot, and his/her usual brilliant daytime green.

Gray Treefrog, either Hyla chrysoscelis Cope, 1880, or Hyla versicolor LeConte, 1825. These sibling species co-occur and can only be distinguished by call or genetic analysis. Usually cryptic, this individual was discovered clinging to the side of an automobile. Near Brentsville, Virginia, USA. Photo by David L. Govoni ©2007. All rights reserved.
I am not sure about my ID on this, none of the big sites have decent images. I've had folks tell me that the frog is too "pink", but this is the way my camera caught it. I've messed with photoshop on this, still come back to the original, as what I saw then. They are not common enough, they sure are pretty.
Happy #WildlifeWednesday! Today we are looking at the squirrel treefrog (Hyla squirella). This little cutie gave our D03-FL field technician quite a surprise during LAI (leaf area index) when she tried to unravel the flag to read it. These tree frogs are always hiding in our flagging. They prefer areas with moisture that provide shelter and food, such as swamps, marshes, edges of lakes and streams, trees, gardens, shrubs, and houses. Squirrel treefrogs can be found all throughout the Southeast and are very common to see at D03’s sites.
Scinax garbei. Found during the day, looking like a lichen on a tree trunk.
Where: Careiro, Amazonas.
When: 11/2008.
I've waited a long time to see my first tree frogs in the wild, but aren't they amazing!
Seen in the south of the Netherlands.
