Hyla chrysocelis. This is one of the two "Gray Treefrogs", and it can be immediately recognized by the call..... but otherwise the differences are literally microscopic! Like most treefrogs, these come to lights, and come to the ground only to breed and to hibernate - spending most of the time in trees and other vegetation. A large chorus can be heard from over a mile away!

These were taken near Peachland, North Carolina, and thank you Dave for showing me where to find these!
