FREAKED me out at work....

I saw this thing jumping (10 feet/jump) at work the other day. Crazy!! Biggest one I've ever seen, by far. Measured 8 inches from snout-to-vent. Took me 10 minutes just to net the damn thing!! Here it is pictured beside a quarter!! Cool eh? Sorry for the blur.

In that shot the frog has the color of a copper penny! What kind of frog is that? I don't think I've ever seen one that size and color.
