thank you Christine Y. and Saumaya Wanniarachchi!
i think i do notice a dorsal ridge though, coming right out of the eye...signifies a green frog
according to that site it looks more like a bullfrog...
Thank you. I like these kind of references because it is simplier to explain.
This may help with ID in the future http://www.virginiaherpetologicalsociety.com/identification-keys/id-keys-frogs/Lithobates-Rana.html
oops...;) so sorry I will fix that. Thanks Lisa!
Hyla cinerea is the name for the green tree frog and is incorrect. ForestDragon has provided you with the correct common and scientific name. Please be sure to update this as it is very confusing to many.
now look at me, i've just +1-ed forestdragon's suggestion. I do believe it is american green frog ;)
i actually think it does look more like a bullfrog forestdragon, but i can't be 100% sure, although i lean towards bullfrog
