I don’t know about you, but I have always thought about frogs and toads as been real mysterious creatures. I bet our little friends that live in our kitchen have loads of funny stories to tell, especially having the best vantage point of being able to see and hear everything that goes on in our house. It’s as if they are little spies, acting so peaceful and chilled in their little hiding spots taking in every story they can, to tell to their friends. One of the species of frog we have living in our kitchen is the Grey Foam-nest Tree Frog. Our first friend  we discovered the day we moved into our new home when we were testing all the lights out. He was sitting on one of the light switches, smiling away as if he was the happiest frog alive. Although there were gloomy days as well, he especially hates overcast, dark gloomy days. He use to always stair out the window, most probably observing his dinner for the night. But than one day… He disappeared, well I can’t blame him for moving cause he was starting to get a little thin. A few days later we found him in a little cup, smiling again. But that didn’t seem to be so comfortable either, so eventually he went to sit by our kitchen sink. Well that was a bit stressful for him and I. Cause I was worried I would by accident squish him or he would jump on me (I think he had the same concerns). So I moved him to the back of the sink. But than he realised  that there was a pretty girl Grey Foam-nest Tree Frog living in a spoon just above him, so he started climbing the wall and went to sit with her and keep her company. His smile is now bigger than ever!!!! On a later time in the middle of winter we found another Grey Foam nest Frog sitting in a tree in front of our house… Clearly it was getting cold judging by its color! Some fun facts about Grey Foam-nest Tree Frog: Grey Foam-nest Tree Frog seem to like living with humans, I think humans attract alot of bugs for these cuties to eat. They have really freaky suckers on their feet, obviously being a tree frog they need can climb trees, but never thought they would be able to climb walls. Now this is pretty interesting, Grey Foam-nest Tree Frog change skin color according to their environmental temperature. That’s pretty cool if you ask me. Their skin color varies between white and brown. So if you wanna know what the temperature for the day is just ask mr/mrs Grey Foam-nest Tree Frog. They grow up to 90mm(9cm) in size. Thats really small, so just be careful not to hurt the poor little thing if he/she comes to visit. Grey Foam-nest Tree Frogs are actually quite intelligent when it comes to easy food… Instead of staying close to waterbeds and aquatic areas they much rather come attach themselves to a human family (not literally). But they do prefer living in peoples homes cause we attract all their favorite foods through our wastage. For more fun facts like these check out – Sodwana Bay Wiki Sources: Wikipedia
