Thank you Ashley for the ID.
Pretty positive this is a newly metamorphosed canyon tree frog
Thank you Jellis for your comments.
Thank you nexttogone
I would say Grey or Cuban but the markings on the mouth don't match. That is on a Toad but the toe pads do say frog.
Cute series ")
Thank you sunswimer02 for the very interesting info. I hadn't noticed it until now.
It looks like it has toe-pads, no cranial ridge, and a rounded snout, which means its some sort of frog (a treefrog), with a lot of tuberacles, and to me it looks like a just-metamorphosed frog which could explain why its hard to ID. It looks like something I saw in Honduras but I can't find the ID.
