I photographed this little green Pacific Chorus Frog in the southern Sierra Nevada mountains in Central California. These little frogs are actually quite common with a habitat that spans most of the lower Pacific coast of North America. It always surprises me when I see or hear them in the winter (even when it is snowing) or at high elevation in the mountains. They are certainly hardy little animals.
It must take a lot of patience and skill (and stealth) to get such a great closeup photo.

It does take some time to get close up images like this. After a while they get use to you and seem to realize that you aren’t a threat.

They definitely surprise me with how hardy they are, too. It’s always a delight to hear and see them.
