Jewel of the Wild
The woodlands of the southern states are the home of Green Tree Frogs. Usually found near water like ponds or streams, they can be easily overlooked while they rest on stems or branches several feet off the ground. The bright green color of their backs blends in perfectly with the leafy surroundings. Like all other tree frogs, they have sticky toe pads that cling to just about any surface. This enables them to climb up anything - even the glass of windows panes where they sometimes can be found at night feeding on insects that are attracted to the light inside.
