I had one that would come onto the porch and wait on the armrest of my chair for me to show up every evening. I would catch moths and hand feed him. Then he started following me into the house. I thought we had a giant dust bunny hopping around, since he was covered in dust. I cleaned him off and took him outside. Mating season came around and he figured out that his nocturnal love songs would travel farther if he climbed into the track for the door wall by our bedroom. The whole plate of glass would start resonating loudly at 3 am. It took a while to find him - he didn't seem to be inside, and he didn't seem to be outside, either. He was in the track! I got up and moved him out into the yard, but the next might he was back. That wet on for a few days. Finally, I put him in the track to the doors on the pole barn. Success. He had a huge sheet metal amplifier, and we could sleep.

Oh my! For me, that would be fun! I love the frog songs no natter how loud they get. May be because I'm used to parrots screeching when the sun comes up and goes down. Nature's noise doesn't bother me at all. I am glad you finally got some sleep.

Sure seems to be Don. People would look at me funny if I told them I was buying the mealworms for a frog. I'd just tell them I'm old and I'm from Mars.

Cute!! I hope you enjoy your visitor. I'm sure he will be very happy to stay with you until the warm spring weather arrives. What more could he want besides a warm place to sleep and breakfast, lunch and dinner served in bed.

LOL, thanks Dodie. You think he might be a bit spoiled? He may not want to leave when it's time to go.

Go ahead, shake your head and laugh, it's perfectly ok with me. Just can't help myself.
Not about how the pictures lokk, but about how cute the frog is.
A few weeks ago, I was watering the plants on my enclosed front porch and I found a tiny tree frog sitting in the east window, warming in the morning sun. Did I have the heart to put it out in the chilly wind? Not me. I love frogs and this cutie is only as big as my thumbnail.
I put a clear McDonald's drink cup, with a paper towel in it and a shallow lid with lukewarm water in it on the window sill. Checked cack later and the sun coming through the plastic cut must have made it warmer in there because there it was, in the cup. Later it was in the water. Off I go to Walmart to buy some mealworms. Yum! Tiny, but fat and happy frog. The same person who would name a bob-tailed horse "Bobtail" would name a ting frog "Hopper".
Go ahead, shake your head and laugh, it's perfectl... (show quote)

A little feel good story for Christmas and you share top billing with a tree frog, Jo. 😊 it was a beautiful, generous gesture. Merry Christmas.

Jo, from one who has locked up REAL crazies for doing unspeakable things, you don't even come close on the certifiable scale. But you do come up with a score of 110% for kindness to all living things and for wanting to share that kindness with others. That would be how I see you anyway.

Have a very Merry Christmas,

Dennis

Great photos, Jo, and great story. Brought tears to me eyes. Maybe in one of your past lives you were a Jain.

And here I thought Jo was trying to fatten him up for those delicious legs.

LOL!!! Maybe I should put him on a diet before warm weather comes. Then he'll be anxious to get out there and find some live bugs.
