Sorry to hear about the one who got into your pump.<br /><br />Randy, always the guy in the know! Thanks ! I think the ones here are Upland Chorus by the native range on your link. Either way they are active!<br />and it will get louder for sure!<br /><br />Lola, These frogs are loud, but when the insects start the whole orchestra is alive!<br /><br />Sweetbay, They are so small, it is hard to see them and when you get close they stop singing. <br /><br />Island Threads (Frances), thanks for coming by! It is pretty amazing isn't it?<br /><br />Jester, sure is!!! <br /><br />Rose, Lullaby of Frogland, good one! <br /><br />Jan, Glad you liked it!<br /><br />Janet, apparently they get a lot louder too. I am amazed they are singing so much in February.<br /><br />Skeeter, I think of it as lulling me to sleep. I look forward to having the windows open at night....sometimes we hear the owl too. I like it.<br /><br />Fer, my head hits the pillow and I am out like a light! <br /><br />Jennifer, They are screaming 'I'm here...' it is a joyous racket to be sure! <br /><br />Les, damn, got all excited then realized I wasn't a frog.Janet, The Queen of Seafordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07876204203323750245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6119628314111837184.post-82817855513018139802011-02-19T07:04:15.800-05:002011-02-19T07:04:15.800-05:00i believe that sound could lead to sex... if you a...i believe that sound could lead to sex... if you are a frog.Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18281256160705697856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6119628314111837184.post-81646717659861599532011-02-18T21:25:11.198-05:002011-02-18T21:25:11.198-05:00Hi Janet, They are looking for love and not the sl...Hi Janet, They are looking for love and not the slightest bit shy about singing out for all the world to hear, "I'm here! Come find me." I am sure it could get annoying after a time, but still, there is something joyous in all that racket.
