Little frogs on Bissetii bamboo

[wannabRN]

Look at these little green frogs on my Bissetii bamboo! these pictures were taken last year, but I just now learned how to upload the pictures in the forum, so I will just post them here without having to upload to the photo sites. I will post some of the pictures for all of the bamboos I am growing for the last 3 years, and see how they grow from little weedy plants to now a small grove ;)

Hi Rog,
Nice pics!
It seems tree frogs have a fancy for bamboo, and it's a magical moment whenever I spot a tree frog clinging to a bamboo culm ... and have a camera in hand.
After a little research, these appear to be the American Green Tree Frog (Hyla cinerea)
Here's some more pics of what might be the same species.
I don't know if or how much variability there is with this frog in different regions.

BTW Glad you figured out the pic uploading procedure with your posts and the galleries.
I can assist to have them displayed at both locations as well.
