The other choice here in the SE would be possibly the Pinewoods Treefrog 
but I'd lean toward Squirrel Treefrog too. The way to tell is the 
markings on the legs in areas that are hidden when the legs are folded. 
These frogs have pretty wide variations in body color.

Look at the two species on my website:

Of course if it's outside the SE all bets are off.
