Darn. Thanks for the correct ID. Green frogs are everywhere and look so different from one another.

A northern leopard frog would be a pale green all over with very obvious brown spots, and the dorsolateral fold is a golden color. Your frog has a dorsolateral fold the same color as the skin, and the skin is bronze with faint brown spots. All indicative of a green frog.
