I’m sticking with the green theme today. Earlier this morning, it was Green Heron images; now, it’s itty bitty Green Tree Frog photos from Sequoyah NWR.

On our last trip to the refuge, Steve Creek and I were able to find and photograph some young American Green Treefrogs that were nearly hidden in a stand of Johnson Grass.

These were tiny tree frogs, and they weren’t easy to spot, especially since the grasses and the tree frogs are green!

Even though these tree frogs were itty bitty, they were enormously cute! I’m always happy to have them in my viewfinder.

The early morning light created just a touch of golden glow on these tiny frogs that I quite liked.

Walking around, looking for subjects like these frogs and holding a camera again felt great. I missed that while living in Utah. Most of the time I photographed from a vehicle there using it as a mobile blind.

When the weather cools off, I suspect I will be doing a lot more photography on foot again.

Life is good.
