Found this guy in my backyard. Anyone know what kind he is?

If this is in Massachusetts, I suspect it might be the gray treefrog, Hyla versicolor.

I agree. Gray treefrog. I see them quite often in the country. Ironically, I see them in different colors, not gray

Last night I went camping in the desert before reality turned to horror.

Saw a wolf pack in the middle of the night. No pictures, but was a really cool sighting nontheless. Thought I'd share seeing how it was probably my last chance to see nature in the foreseeable future.
