Description
I discovered this California Tree frog (Pseudacris sp.) hunting flying insects while standing nearly 2 meters up on the glass of my sliding door. He's out of his usual territory being in the warm and dry climate on San Luis Obispo County, California. Here, he stays a pale tan but in cooler, moist environments, he will turn a beautiful Kermit green.
This male was a challenge to photograph since I need to shoot through 2 sheets of glass and light him with a flash light at an angle to minimize glare. He's visited several times since, snacking on gnats and other frog delicacies.
