Not sure at the moment about the one in the water (#3), but the first two are Green Frogs (occasionally called Bronze Frogs). A very good mark, visible on these individuals, is the dorsolateral ridge of skin that runs from behind the eye down to the flank.

Later addition: #3 looks like a Mink Frog, a northern frog that doesn't range down into the lower Great Lakes and Ohio River valley as does the Green. It is in the same genus as Green Frog.
