Description A tree frog, one of six that hang out on my front porch, hanging out on a pole. I adore these little guys! They are so sweet. I love the loud songs they sing.

Full View is highly recommended for optimum colors and your viewing pleasure.

Aww, that's just cute, funny and interesting, and of course the shot is great too. I love it how you always manage to come up with such fine ideas and sneak loads of character into your nature photography. That's a true form of talent, I say.

Aw, what a beautiful tree frog! I just acquired a tree frog as a pet. He's not as vivid and interesting as that one, though!

IrishRaine In reply to StrangeEyeAm [2006-08-12 13:13:23 +0000 UTC]

Thank you!

Is it hard having one as a pet? What do you feed them? I have so many around here, that they all feel like pets to me, lol!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

StrangeEyeAm In reply to IrishRaine [2006-08-13 13:40:51 +0000 UTC]

It's not too difficult to keep him right now. Basically, you have to clean the cage once a week. And spray (mist) his enclosure with de-chlorinated water every morning to keep the humidity levels up. As long as you research how to care for one first, it's not hard! I feed him crickets dusted in this supplement that I got at the pet store.

Thanks! I guess the one's outside my house are getting a hearty meal from the abundance of bugs we have here, lol!
