These slender-legged tree frogs are pretty common. I ran into a lot of them too! This one seems to have a brown stripe dorsally, just unsure on it.

Thanks Brendan. Seems like I've seen a lot of these frogs. I've updated it to just the genus, so it's at least partially ID'd.

From this picture I can't say for sure. It is an Osteocephalus like your other photos but could be O. taurinus or O. planiceps.
