Perfect camouflage: Grey treefrog (Hyla versicolor)

Treefrogs are commonly heard calling from trees all summer long, but trying to find them is tough. Usually when one does, it is a fluke, as this was. Just sheer luck it was found! The camouflage is perfect. They also turn a lovely emerald green when sitting on green vegetation.
