A chorus of frogs enlivens the night at Cool Pond in West Virginia. At this time of the season the chorus is dominated by gray treefrogs, Hyla versicolor. This individual was singing from the lower branches of a willow at the water's edge. Yarrow's honeysuckle berries gleam in the background.
Gray treefrogs occur from Maine to Minnesota and south to east Texas and southern Virginia.
I was wading knee deep in the pond to get to the location where he was singing. Getting the lights in place and the camera and tripod without scaring him off was a task. He really tolerated my activities as he was consumed with other tasks.
