Gray Treefrog

Gray Treefrog
This is the first view I had of the frog.  I try to shoot at a distance that I know will be comfortable for the creature.  I then work my way closer in small increments.

I then work the background and light as I get closer.  I am not showing you many of the shots between the one at the top and this one.

As you may have noticed, the frog is deciding it is time to vacate the area in this shot.  I was surprised how patient it was with me getting in its face.

Green Treefrog
I needed help from Merrill Tawse on the ID for this frog.  They change color depending on the location, hence the name hyla versicolor.  With its color like you see, I thought it might be one from South Carolina or Florida.  That, truly, would have been news!
