Field Notes

Habitat:

Located at a local County nature Preserve this date. It was under a 2 x 6 railing taken up to be replaced. The previous night had been a substantial downpour and all was wet. The frog was sitting on the support post for the railing; and did not move when the piece of wood was lifted up and off. Eventually the hot sun caused it to hop off into the wet grass below.

I checked the UF IFAS link. They had one B&W photo that I didn't find in all the photos I looked at before submitting that fits my frog. I agree w/ your call. I will edit the spotting. Thank you.
I apologize for failing to provide a link. Here is one: http://ufwildlife.ifas.ufl.edu/cuban_treefrog_inFL.shtml
This looks like the very invasive Cuban Treefrog to me.
