Strange Topic?

Don't know where else to post this:

I enjoy seeing all the posts an pictures of the birds and the different feeders and I also feed the feathered and the tree rats.

Now I have a new visitor to what they consider a feeder--Tree frogs.

If I turn the light on over the kitchen sink after dark, in a few minutes I'll have 1 or 2 frogs on the window eating bugs that come to the light.

Can't figure out how to get a decent picture that shows them because of glare and reflection.

Anyone else feed the frogs?

Could you sneak up behind them and get a picture from outside?  Or, use the flash at an angle maybe with a baffle to cut off one side of the cone?

And no, I haven't seen any at our place.  Did see one on the siding once.

maybe try have a friend shine a light at them from outside at an angle. then you take pic from outside. should be able to get fairly close. use a high ISO and try with and without flash.  works good for flying squirrels. good luck!

We have a dusk til dawn light that is a square post about 42" high with the light at the top.  Every year about this time, there are 3-5 tree frogs on it each night snapping up all the bugs that are attracted to the light.  We also have them on a sliding patio door.
