Green Treefrog

Dryophytes cinereus

Green Treefrog

Adult green treefrogs live around wetlands, swamps, ponds, and moist gardens, often resting on leaves, stems, windows, or tree trunks. They are nocturnal ambush hunters that eat insects and other small invertebrates, striking with a fast sticky tongue. Their smooth green skin and pale side stripe provide strong camouflage among vegetation. Males are well known for loud nasal calls, especially during warm, humid nights and after rain.
