Spotting

Janet, I have seen spotted frogs, but it's been many year ago & I never got a photo of one. Would love to see one when I have my camera!

And as mentioned look at the toes

Bullfrogs would eat this little guy, Toads are more squat

Have you spotted the Oregon spotted Frog? I was hunting for something else in Washington and I was behind a tree when I looked and there it was clinging to the tree. Not even a real tree frog, and bigger. Too bad I didn't have my camera at the time.

Thank you and your welcome
Tree frogs get most of their moisture from the rain type forests. Heard some tree frogs don't need much water for their eggs, that some use water in tree stumps

Thanks for all your comments, everyone! I think the Pacific tree frog is the correct identity. Looks just like the juvenile in the photo on the website Janet Ellis provided. The thing that confused me tryint to decide if it was a toad or frog is that there's no water within 5 miles of either place I saw these!

Thanks to JanetEllis for the links. It's not a toad or a bullfrog due to the discs on the tips of the toes.

It looks like either a toad or a bull frog, I've learned about frogs and or toads like this before but I'm not very familiar with this one. But its a great photo good job

Nice Toad!

Pacific Treefrog (Pseudacris regilla)

Thanks, Kyle! We see these fairly often in this area

I placed this treefrog in the genus Pseudacris because that's where the Center for North American Herpetology placed it. I've also found the frog in the genus Hyla but I believe this is incorrect. Not totally familiar with Pacific Northwestern herpetofauna so if someone else can verify that would be great!
