Sierran Treefrog
Pseudacris sierra
A small, adaptable treefrog found around ponds, streams, meadows, woodlands, and even gardens across much of western North America. It feeds mainly on tiny insects and other invertebrates, striking with a fast sticky tongue from cover. Males are famous for their loud two-part “ribbit” calls during the breeding season, often calling from shallow water or nearby vegetation. Its skin color can shift between green, brown, gray, or reddish tones, helping it blend into bark, leaves, mud, and stones.
