window walker

tonight crawling up my window, i find this tiny frog, suction-ish feet firmly planted on the slick glass. if it's flies he's looking for, he's come to the right place. there's even a spider web out there for the insects. he's a determined creature, and i watch as he climbs to the top of the window. why he doesn't backslide on such a slippery, vertical surface, i do not know.

Such a clever little fellow! Cheers Chris.

The Science Guy says it's a gray tree frog. He should have yellow coloration where his legs meet his body.
Nice photo of the sticky pads on his feet!
