Cuban Treefrog

Description:

It rained for about one and one half hours. Finally, the rained stopped. At 10:30 p.m. at night, I went outside to see if there was any insects, at the left and right, outdoor, nightlight bulbs. To my surprise...there was a Cuban treefrog, resting on an outside wall, about seven inches, from the left, outdoor, nightlight bulb. This frog was resting here, on this wall, trying to catch flying insects, that was flying in the air, or just resting near the outdoor, nightlight bulb, or flying around this frog. A perfect place, to ambush and capture, prey insects. My photos did not turn out good, as the bushes were wet, this frog was high up on this wall, and I do not have a telephoto lens, for my camera. This frog, was about two and one half inches long. The color of this frog, was different shades of brown. The largest treefrog in North America, is the Cuban treefrog ( 1.5 to 5 inches in body length ). Near the right, outdoor, nightlight bulb, I spotted five different species of small beetles and other insects.

Habitat:

The Cuban treefrog, is often found on the ground and on tree trunks, in a wide range of habitats, including: forests, mangroves, coastal areas, and areas of brackish water.
