Found this guy hanging out on a steel sculpture at the inlaw's farm last weekend.

Aww.. That actually makes them look cute, and not quite so creepy...

Maybe 3/4" at most?

Your fear of tree frogs caused you to stop trying to be a photographer?

There is a species of tree frog someplace that is called "the poison dart frog"....

Have you ever seen those pygmies with the blow guns?

The ones with the poison darts?

Guess where they get the poison from!

Great pictures, as always, Jon. I wish I could take you and your camera skills on vacation with me...

He looks like the little frogs that you hear singing at night in Bermuda. It drives some people crazy, but I love to hear that sound.

Why wish? You pay for the vacation, and I'll take the pictures. ;)
