what is this thing??

Tree frogs can show up anywhere - we have lots of them, and they can get noisy on warm nights. They eat all kinds of insects, so I'm glad they are around.



Winter before last, one stowed away in one of my indoor/outdoor plants and showed up in my basement in January. Not sure what he ate for the three months before being discovered, but I supplied the crickets and mealworms after he was caged until he could go outside in late April. They can change their color from gray to pale green depending on various factors. Here's our house buddy.

Nope stone cold sober.

I always thought Natasha was hot.
I have tree frogs and lizards living in my cacti and agave.
Little green ones.
my driveway is like a lizard super highway this time of year.
Up and down and across they go.
Sometimes they chase each other in circles.
These things are everywhere.
It is like my very own Jurassic park.

That is not a toad. It is Hyla crucifer. (not sure of the spelling) aka Spring Peeper. See the cross like pattern on its back? That is how it got its name. It is in the tree frog family.
