Figure 1 is an IPhone photograph of a gray treefrog (Hyla versicolor)found clinging to my friend’s door. My friend was not happy to find this frog there. It represents, after all, an invasion of the human space, a reminder that we are not alone. The frog was also not so pleased to have my cell phone shoved in its face. I tried for a better angle, one that would reveal more of its eye, but this was really the best that I could do. In the end, I gave the frog a gentle tap to send it on its way, thus making my friend happy that the frog was gone and the frog happy to have my cell phone out of its face.
