Squirrel Treefrog

Dryophytes squirellus

The squirrel tree frog is a small species of tree frog found in the southeastern United States, from Texas to Virginia. It is an introduced species to the Bahamas. Squirrel tree frogs are small frogs, about 1.5 inches in length as adults. There are several color variations, but most commonly they are green and look very much like the American green tree frog. They can also be varying shades of yellow or brown, sometimes with white or brown blotching. Males may also possess a relatively large, conspicuous lateral body stripe, with thicker stripes being more attractive to female frogs. Source
