Spring peepers will be coming out soon. We have a lot of storm water rentention ponds around here with cattails and such.Gets a mite loud when the chorus starts singing together. Hard to nelieve these tiny thumbnail size frogs can make such a loud noise.

This site has audio files of solo and chorus.

I love those little guys!

When I was very young and didn’t know that I should only move them to where they were headed, I used to bag up *everything* crossing on the mountain and bring it home.

It drove my dad nuts.

All the peeping, chirping, croaking and ribbeting was *deafening* when you walked outside at night.

I loved it.

:)
