As we approached one of our weir sites we found this Sierran Treefrog (Pseudacris sierra) keeping watch over our electronic fish monitoring equipment. Treefrogs are typically found living among shrubs and grass near water, so this is not the usual tree frog habitat. But, thanks to their large toe pads they can also be found high up in trees or even perched on a padlock. Nice to know we have help keeping an eye on things over the holiday weekend.
