Grey treefrog (Hyla versicolor)

Found in Larose Forest. This is a young one. The mature adults are much larger and with a more cryptic pattern, often gray, though they can change colour to a greenish hue when needed. I have seen dozens of these little guys over the years, almost always found unexpectedly when not looking for them. This one was resting on a milkweed leaf, but when I stopped he hopped to the side as here, then jumped further back into the dense vegetation near a wetland.

He's a cute little dude! I like how the darker leaf seems to be pointing to him. V

I love frogs, except when I'm trying to get some sleep and they're singing. This one is a cutie. Really good close up. V

What a cool shot, Christine! Love him sitting on the edge of the leaf like that.
Glad you acted quickly. ~
