Hyla versicolor
Very nice little frogs to have in ones yard. I've been hearing them trilling the past week or so and was quite happy to find this little guy this evening. As the name implies they are able to change their color. I've seen them in green, gray, sandy brown and camo versions. Easily my favorite North American frog.
After a long day in the field (and on the side of the road), we returned to find this Northern Gray Treefrog (Hyla versicolor) perched on the side of my car. Kingston, NJ.
A green treefrog I rescued from a bloke's toilet. He couldn't go until the frog went. Frog is now living in my fishpond.
Note the latex glove. Acid in skin is bad for frogs. Toilet bowl = Okay. Human skin = not okay. *shrugs*
I could make a whole album with just pictures of treefrogs. They are so variable and always make for a beautiful picture.

These little treefrogs love hanging out in my yard. I like taking pictures of them so much, I don't even mind all the mosquito bites I get in the process!

When you wake up the sleeping frog you get to see his crazy orange eyes!

There is nothing to see here. Just listen. At night our ditch is alive with frogs. You can hear them but not see them. My first attempt was poor quality as I was not close enough. So in this take I try to approach a particularly vocal group. I cannot see them but they are well aware of my presence. And half way through this take they shut up as I get too close
