Thanks Pedro Samuel and Ava for one more ID,i think is a Perez frog too. Thanks EnvUnlimited for your comment
http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/14041207 I think it's a Perez's. Here's my Perez's Frog for comparison.
I believe both are the Marsh Frog. The Marsh frog ranges in color from green to brown, and have the characteristic line running down their back.
