Every day I look for my little ribbity friend Lima Bean in the brambles along our backyard. Yesterday I spotted him/her!🐸

Today I met an even SMALLER little friend—Sweet Pea (It’s the size of my pinky fingernail)!🤣

Green on green; near the stem end of a big leaf, a small, green tree frog rests. He's almost all green, with a brown stripe from his mouth, past the eye, back to his shoulder. And he has long,  brown toes. His eye is yellow.
The tree is a red-osier dogwood, Cornus  sericea; it has red stems. The  leaves  are long, up to 10 cm., like this one. Veins run from the main centre vein, curving out, then inward  toward the tip; between them, the leaf billows out, making long, gathered cushions.

He was judging me as I told him that house was NOT a frog house

This isn't the front door tree frog. This is backyard tree frog. It's unclear if they know each other.

mossy greenish back of a tree frog trying to decide it's next move from a black wire trellis. We can't see the eyes to determine species but from its location, I am guessing Baja California Treefrog
(Pseudacris hypochondriaca hypochondriaca). It's back is rough textured with bumps, it has a visible dark line running through its eye and back along its side and its legs have stripes. It's difficult to see here  but it does have "suckered" toe pads. On top of its head is a small piece of leaf.

Based on geographic location I believ this to be  a Baja California Treefrog 
(Pseudacris hypochondriaca hypochondriaca). It's has a mossy green/Grey rough textured skin, darker stripes on its legs, back and through the eye extending back along its neck. It is balanced on a black wire trellis looking away from the camera, seeming to contemplate its next move to safety. Also, there is a tiny litter fragment on its head.

I accidently rousted this little one from hiding out of my cukes and dahlia. I don't usually see them here as we're a bit far from the creek (full of 'em) so didnt want to cause it more stress with a full-on photo-shoot.

Some days, I get caught up thinking about exotic locales and taking pictures, and I get bummed.

Other days, my wife gets me to take a break from the dishes to take photos like this five foot from my door.

Some days are much better than others.

A mottled green and brown frog sits facing away from us on a moss-covered surface at a now-vintage white computer, with its front legs resting on the keyboard in a typing position. The frog has warty, textured skin with dark and light green patches. The scene is surrounded by lush green moss and has a waterfall in the background, creating a whimsical, surreal composition that suggests the frog is working at a computer workstation.

After having gone missing in my papers for 30 years, the original ad has been found!

The bottom half (shown here) features we called the Computer "Toad" (actually a tree frog), and it still features prominently on my ancient ISP-provided tilde page.

A tiny, thumbnail-sized, bright green Pacific chorus frog sits on a leaf the exact same color with a tangle of dried grass, fallen rose leaves, and some wire from a chain-link fence behind it. The frog has a very dark brown (almost black) lateral stripe that extends from its nose to the end of its hind jumping legs. Its underside is lighter than its top side. My kids found it in a wild patch of the backyard. We actually found two of them, but the other one sneaked away before we could get a picture.

Episode 436: Red-Eyed Tree Frog https://media.blubrry.com/strangeanimalspodcast/content.blubrry.com/strangeanimalspodcast/Episode_436_red_eyed_tree_frog.mp3 Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 5:40 — 6.2MB) Subscribe: RSS | More Thanks to Trech for suggesting this week’s topic, the red-eyed tree frog! **Further reading:** Tadpoles hatch in seconds to escape predator The colorful red-eyed tree frog [photo by Geoff Gallice]: **Show transcript:** Welcome to Strange Animals Podcast. I’m your host, Kate Shaw. This week we’re going to have a short little episode about a little frog, suggested by Trech. The frog in question is the red-eyed tree frog, which is native to Central America, including parts of Mexico, and northwestern South America. It lives in forests, always around water. You might be thinking, “of course, frogs live in water,” but remember that this is a tree frog. It lives in trees. But it still needs water for its babies, just not quite in the way most frogs do. Before we learn about that, let’s learn about the frog itself. A big female can grow about 3 inches long, or 7.5 cm, while males are smaller. It’s a cute frog, of course, because frogs are always cute, but it’s also brightly colored. It’s bright green with red eyes, blue and yellow stripes on its sides, and orange feet. Ordinarily, a frog with such bright colors would warn potential predators that it’s toxic, but the red-eyed tree frog isn’t toxic at all. Its bright colors have a different purpose. When it’s sitting on a leaf, the bright colors are hidden and only the frog’s smooth green back is showing, which makes it look like just another leaf. Only its eyes are bright, but it closes its eyes when it’s resting. But if a predator approaches, the frog opens its eyes suddenly and jumps up, revealing all those bright colors. The predator is startled, and maybe even hesitates because it thinks the frog might be toxic, and by the time the predator decides it should try eating the frog after all, the frog is long gone. Oh, and if you’re wondering, the red-eyed tree frog can see through its eyelids. They’re actually not eyelids like we have, but a membrane that it can move over its eyes. The frog is nocturnal and eats insects like mosquitoes, crickets, and moths. It has a good sense of smell, which helps it find insects in the dark. The tree frog also has suction cups on its toes that help it stay put on smooth leaves. During the day it sticks itself to the underside of a leaf to sleep where it’s more hidden. The female also lays her eggs on the underside of a leaf. This protects them from heavy rain, since the frogs breed during the rainy season, and it also helps hide them from predators. The female chooses a leaf that’s growing above water, and if the leaf isn’t very big she’ll lay eggs on both sides of it and fold the leaf to help hide all the eggs. The eggs stick to the leaf with a type of jelly that also helps keep them from drying out. The eggs hatch in about a week, but they can hatch a few days early if a predator approaches. The embryonic tadpoles in their eggs can sense vibrations, and if a predator like a snake shakes the leaf as it approaches the eggs, the tadpoles can hatch within seconds. They drop straight down into the water below the leaf. Hatching early when in danger is called phenotypic plasticity, and it’s really rare. It’s especially unusual because the embryonic tadpoles can actually tell the difference between a typical predator of frog eggs and vibrations caused by other animals or the wind. They can hatch so quickly because the stress reaction causes the pre-tadpoles to secrete an enzyme from their little noses, which weakens the egg wall and allows them to push and wiggle their way out. Tadpoles stay in the water for several weeks, or sometimes several months depending on conditions, during which time they eat algae and other tiny food in the water. As they grow bigger, the tadpoles can eat bigger food, including other tadpoles. They switch to tiny insects after they metamorphose into froglets. At some point during its development, a red-eyed tree frog needs to eat enough food containing carotenoids in order to develop properly, and in order to develop brightly colored skin as an adult. The red-eyed tree frog is a popular pet, but captive-bred frogs sometimes aren’t as brightly colored because they didn’t get enough of the right foods as young frogs. During breeding season, a male will claim a small branch and jump and bounce around on it, both to call attention to himself and to shake other males off the branch. He also croaks loudly to attract a mate. This is what he sounds like: [frog call] You can find Strange Animals Podcast at strangeanimalspodcast.blubrry.net. That’s blueberry without any E’s.

A photo of the front of a pale green tree frog from the low side as it rests on some pale blue painted wood.  The frog's head is turned slightly to the side, one golden filagree-like eye staring at the camera, one leg slightly tucked under its body, the other, toes splayed, grasping the surface upon which it rests.

An open notebook displaying a colorful diagram. There are multiple trees covered in different colors to represent different species of frogs and where they may live on trees. There are multiple spreads, displaying the possible mixes of species on different trees. Each tree is unique, and some display up to six species on one tree, along with multiple on the ground near the trees.

Does anybody know what this theory of species spread on trees is called? Specifically for frogs?
