My mailbox-frog became an under-cover frog today. I found him hiding under the cover of my mailbox.

He obviously didn't feel comfortable when I lifted the lid to take photos.

Imagine him hopping out of the mailbox to greet the letter carrier.

I'm afraid I have to deceive your hopes. He doesn't seem polite enough to greet the carrier. He gave me the cold shoulder when I took photos.

He's a lovely shade of green lol.

You're right.
I'll have to show him to my daughter. She likes the colour green.

Maybe he just doesn't like having his photo taken?

Hm. I don't know why that rings a bell.

You could be right. When I came home today, he was sitting on top of the mailbox again. He didn't mind when I opened the lid to look into the box, but as soon as I started taking photos, he hid between wall and mailbox.
Or maybe I held my iPhone too close to him...

He must be a very small frog if you're holding the phone close enough to bother him.

This one is about 3 cm, without legs.
I've just noticed there's a smaller one there as well.

Maybe you'll be lucky enough to get both of them in the same picture.

Here's the Wikipedia article on your frogs. European tree frog - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

The one on my picture has disappeared. Maybe they'll both be there tomorrow afternoon, when I come back from school.

I can't find the other two, but a new frog appeared today:

It looks like they are attracted by the insects.

Beautiful pictures! It looks like you took a walk along the river.
