Polypedates braueri
In 3 days ~60% in a week ~90%
Polypedates braueri is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It's native range includes tropical and subtropical China, Taiwan, and large parts of Southeast Asia. It has also been introduced to Guam. It has been observed between 0 and 2200 meters above sea level.
This frog has been found forests, bamboo groves, and orchards. The female frog builds a foam on a plant overhanging a pool of water and lays 400–500 eggs at a time. When the eggs hatch, the tadpoles fall into the water below. These frogs can lay eggs over many types of water, but they seem to prefer dense vegetation and shallow water.
Scientists do not consider this frog in danger of extinction because of its large range and presumed large population. The local population in Taiwan may be threatened by competition with Polypedates megacephalus, which humans introduced. Wikipedia →

Possible
About 30% of wildlife watchers report a White-lipped Tree Frog sighting in Hangzhou on a given day, based on 62 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 2nd most-seen of the 13 amphibians we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 60%, and over a week to about 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April, June and September
In those months about 40% of wildlife watchers report a White-lipped Tree Frog in Hangzhou on a given day, against under 5% in November to March, the lowest months.
Yes
Of the 2 cities where we can rate White-lipped Tree Frog sightings, Hangzhou has the highest daily chance: about 30%. Next come Taipei (Taiwan, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the White-lipped Tree Frog is recorded against all the amphibians logged in Hangzhou (62 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
