Unfortunately they have a super variable pattern! The yellow under the legs (you can see it some) and the copper colored eyes tell you it's a cuban tree frog. The eyes are almost red when they first metamorphose and lighten a little as they get older, still a pretty distinct color though. Even though they are invasive, I still think they are really pretty!

Thanks Ashley, I was hoping for something different especially with markings. Oh well!

My field guide is to western amphibians, so I don't know what species of treefrog this is.
