Attention Frog lovers: cute wild frogs!

I was fortunate enough to see two tree frog species. One is tiny, ~2cm length, it settled in flower pot in the entrance porch. I think it is Acris gryllus, Southern cricket frog

This dude is really impressive. American Green Tree frog, Hyla cinerea. He was very docile and strangely was basking on the white fence.

second shot

He is certainly photogenic dude, a real Star!

Nice pics, always had a soft spot for frogs! I used to live in a village called Woodsetts and around the 1900s a colony of midwife toads were introduced into the local ponds. When i asked the locals what was the strange sounds at night a old guy said " Ar, that be the singing frogs that be".lol.
