A new species on one of my HB feeders today. I'm calling it a Gray Tree Frog. :) I have a few of these little frogs around. I hear them a lot, but can seldom find them. Like a Chameleon, they have the ability to change colors to match their background. I think I saw this same frog in a little bird bath in my shade bed too.

SW, good to see you have such frequent visitors. A tip for photoing HBs on feeders. They are so small, often times the auto focus on your camera won't pic them up. In your photos, it's picking up the wicker furniture in the background and focusing on it. You can correct this by focusing on the body of the feeder and while keeping the shutter button slightly depressed, swing over to frame the bird.
