Cope's Gray tree frog (Hyla chrysoscelis)

Cope's Gray tree frog. Photo by Bruce Spencer.Each Spring we eagerly await a new generation of tree frogs on our farm. They fill the night with calls that sound very much like the cheeping of baby chicks. This is a Cope's Gray tree frog and his call is a bit more traditional - hear a sound file of his call (University of Kentucky). The pink pole this frog is sitting on happens to be the base of my ring finder.

Uhh, I'm pretty sure that's not a Cope's gray tree frog. It's a cricket frog...
