Wood frog calls
I don't think I've ever been
happier to see rain in March than I was
this weekend. After our cold, wet winter, a week of sunny days in
the fifties and sixties was irresistable and it took the rain to remind
me that working from dawn until dark every day requires intermittent
days of rest.
The frogs were happy to
see wet weather reappear as well. Spring Peepers and
Chorus Frogs were joined by dozens of Wood Frogs (captured in the
embedded video) by Friday night. Ever since the first spring when
I hunted them
down by flashlight, I've had a very soft spot in my heart for Wood
Frogs --- hopefully you'll see the appeal too.
Want your chickens to be as
happy as our frogs? Give them an automatic chicken waterer and they'll amuse themselves
for hours.
