It wasn't until a few years ago that I finally met this frog.
The Cricket Frog is a small frog, and although it can often be found by ponds, it can also be plentiful in the woods or fields. This species also has some interesting color morphs.
This one has some of the green morph coloration. Others will have some red, and some will be found with no green or red. I'll see if I can find a red one sometime soon. Though these frogs are tiny, they are very quick and can be hard to catch. Often they can be seen in large numbers jumping into the nearby pond when we walk past it.
As always, I'm @papa-pepper and here's the proof:
