Hi Ric3, neat find. This looks like a species of Treefrog. Check out this link and see if you can find a match: http://ufwildlife.ifas.ufl.edu/frogs/central.shtml#Arboreal . Oak Toads are terrestrial (they stay on the ground) and look a bit different. http://ufwildlife.ifas.ufl.edu/frogs/oaktoad.shtml
