Several individuals (all males I believe). Mottled gray coloration with bright yellow in the inside of the hind legs. Identified by call. These were singing mightily along with several other frog species after a day of heavy rain.

Habitat:

Freshwater pond within temperate forest at a campground

I was amazed that they did not really care about my presence. The vibration of their singing was a bit too fast for my shutter speed. ;-)

Your spotting has been nominated for the Spotting of the Week. The winner will be chosen by the Project Noah Rangers based on a combination of factors including: uniqueness of the shot, status of the organism (for example, rare or endangered), quality of the information provided in the habitat and description sections. There is a subjective element, of course; the spotting with the highest number of Ranger votes is chosen. Congratulations on being nominated!
