Last month I took these images of a Gray Treefrog at Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge<\/span><\/a>. This just goes to show you all how far behind I am on sharing my photos!<\/p>\n

\"GrayGray Treefrog on a green leaf \u2013 Canon R7, handheld, f8, 1\/320, ISO 800, -1.0 EV, Canon 100-500mm at 500mm, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

I found this treefrog near one of the boat ramps on the refuge while walking close to the water. I couldn’t resist taking this image because it was my first view of this Gray Treefrog.<\/p>\n

Even though I can’t see the eyes well, and there’s no catch light, it was the frog’s form and color patterns that drew me in.<\/p>\n

The Gray Treefrogs are very different in appearance from the American Green Tree Frogs I also find at the refuge.<\/p>\n

I don’t find nearly as many Gray Treefrogs as I do Green Tree Frogs.<\/p>\n

\"GrayGray Treefrog side view \u2013 Canon R7, handheld, f8, 1\/250, ISO 800, -1.0 EV, Canon 100-500mm at 500mm, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

The photo above features the same treefrog as in the first image; I just moved a bit to get a side view of the frog.<\/p>\n

The last couple of times I’ve been to the refuge, I haven’t seen many frogs at all. That may be due to the drier weather and conditions at the refuge. I’ll keep looking for them, though!<\/p>\n

I’m thoroughly enjoying photographing both species of tree frogs at the refuge.<\/p>\n

Life is<\/em> good.<\/p>\n
