Little Yellow Hopper



On Saturday I was cleaning up our patio and setting up our summer furniture.  I opened the lid to the box where all the chair cushions  are stored and was startled by something jumping out at me.  The fast dash of color settled down on the ledge of the storage box so I ran to the kitchen for my camera.  

I truely expected to have gone for the camera for nothing, but, was delighted to find that this pale yellow frog had decided to stay put and wait for me to return.     

The Old Salt picked up the little guy and after this little yellow jumper did a few hops up and down his arm he settled down on his hand to have this picture taken.  We released him into my flower bed where I hope he will be happy and keep his promise not to startle me again.  

Can anyone identify what kind of frog this is?

  6. That would have been a bit of a surprise. The little guy certainly was cooperative for his photo shoot. I don't recall ever seeing a yellow frog before!
