Found these in my garden and was curious what they are?
I'd say they're "gardenious frogos"
The first is a Pseudacris chorus frog, and the second is an Acris cricket frog. I cannot get any further with an identification without a locality, and even with a locality, some species co-occur, so it can be difficult without having the frogs in my own hands.

Acri, Calabria, Italy
Acri in Calabria is sometimes described as the "door to the Sila mountains", yet the town appears impenetrable which could be due to a long history of violence.
In the Middle Ages, during the reign of the Norman King Federico II, Acri enjoyed a period of relative peace and economic prosperity, and it became an important centre for the silk trade.
In the 15th century, the power struggle between the French House of Anjou and the Spanish Crown of Aragon nearly destroyed the town. In 1462, a local duke obtained permission from the Aragonese King Ferdinand I of Naples to collect taxes in Acri. When people protested and proclaimed loyalty to the former Angevin rulers, they were seized by troops from the Aragonese army.

Even at that time, Acri must have seemed impenetrable to outsiders, for the Spanish soldiers failed to take the city, until they found a traitor who revealed the secret signals that opened the city gates. The soldiers attacked Acri with incredible cruelty, and it is estimated that 2000 citizens lost their lives. Women and children who had taken refuge in the church of Santa Maria Maggiore were burned to death, and the leader of the guards was publicly sawed in four pieces while still alive, and the limbs were exposed from the four towers of the castle.
Such history of violence is in stark contrast to the quiet peace you can experience today in Acri. But the ruins of the old castle with its one remaining tower still hover over the city as a reminder of times gone by.
