Was anyone able to guess our newest native species? If you guessed tree frogs, you are correct!

We are now the home of 3 green tree frogs! Usually people think tree frogs only live in the rainforest but we have 9 different species of tree frogs here in Maryland! These guys are great at camouflaging, as you can see. If anyone has any name suggestions for these 3, comment below!
