This is a Peron's Tree Frog - distinguishing features are the criss-cross pupil, tiny emerald green spots on the back (just discernible in the photo) and the black and white/yellow blotches in the groin.
They're good at changing tone as you mention, tending to become paler at night and darker during the day, depending on the background.
