Cuban tree Frogs

Osteopilus septentrionalis

Description:

I discovered I had predators in my Male Papaya tree. It is 20 feet high and in the evening when the sun has set, I like to check to see if Hawk-moths are feeding on the Papaya flowers. Instead about a week ago, I spotted these moving objects on the limbs and I have frogs obviously feeding off insects that come to the Papaya flowers

Habitat:

I usually see them closer to ground. I am afraid there is not enough visible frog to name it. Likely came from the ditch in the field behind us.
