While at work the other day this guy showed up to see what I was doing. This is hands down the largest tree frog I have ever seen. He must have been about four inches long. He hoped out at me but I quickly dodged him and he landed here. A few weeks ago one of my co-workers had one jump in her hair and pee. But it wasn't even close to this size.
He quickly retreated back to the rotary unit I was working at. But he kept peeking out and looking at me. You know like "give me a kiss" kind of look. You can see his suction cups on his feet pretty good here. If it weren't for that I would have thought it was some sort of toad because of his size.
You can see by this letter I'm holding up that he really is large. You have to account for the fact that the letter is closer to the camera than the frog. Cause that thing wasn't getting close enough to me to pee in my hair. Also he was lighter than normal tree frogs but he still had green on him and brown age spots. I was at a retirement community after all.
.Eventually he got tired of staring at me and trying to get a kiss so he made a giant leap toward the nearest bush.
Can't say I'll be missing him. And I'm not sorry for not breaking that witches spell that turned him into a frog either.
That's a Cuban Tree Frog. An evasive species. They like to do things to scare you, like sitting on a doorknob when it dark & you can't see him & put your hand on the knob, only the grab him instead!!! (I did that!!)
