Looks like this species displays quite a variety of colors/patterns. Neat find!

We get them all over the place just on our water spouts and on the lawn.

I still think it's Psuedacris sierra. The eye stripe is a useful feature in distinguishing it from other similar species. Check out the picture of the adult specimen from Nevada County. Extremely similar to yours.
Obviously with amphibians a nearby water feature is a good thing, "this species utilizes a wide variety of habitats, often far from water outside of the breeding season, including forest, woodland, chaparral, grassland, pastures, desert streams and oases, and urban areas."
Do all of the frogs you find have a similar pattern, or is there any variation?
