Description

This only a few of the many California Treefrog juveniles and several adults found in this stretch of desert creek. They were especially obvious as they jumped around just after dusk. Their dark background colors closely matched the wet soil and presumably they become paler and more "granite-like" with age. Special thanks to Gary Nafis at CaliforniaHerps.com for his identification help.
