Hungry little fella I found last night.

The family and I have seen this little tree frog around the front of our house all summer long from time to time. We had not seen him for a long time until last night. He has tripled in size since July. Though they are common, we don't see these very often in KS at all, and we were a little surprised to find this one living around our house. I think it is a Cope's Gray Tree Frog. He was feasting on the insects attracted by the can lights under our eaves and I thought this is the type of thing ya'll could appreciate. Sorry for the quality, but I really had to stretch to get up to him and didn't want to scare him off.

Nice of you to create a "restaurant" for him to dine at! :thumbup:

Great shot. Remarkable how much growth they can put on in one season isn't it! Those things are smaller than your baby fingernail right after they metamorphosize. Toads are the same way - they come out of the tadpole stage as the tiniest little things and over a few years can get pretty darn large!
