I love that sound! Despite living relatively near water (about 12 blocks from the Detroit River), that sound goes unheard, but I attribute that to the strong currents in the river. I know that on Grosse Ile (an island in the middle of the river) has a lot of frogs however.
Thanks. They usually only peep at night, but they haven't let up for 3 days straight. You'd think they'd get tired of it. I don't remember them going so strong this early in the year before.
I've been hearing them for the past week or so. They started to get active after that snow we got here in Arkansas. I think most of mine are tree frogs because only the neighbors have a pond that's close. We do have a creek in our front yard and back yard. There may be some ponding I can't see in the woods.
Thanks, Kav. The newts are pretty cool. I read that they live in three stages: water, land, and then back to water. As far as I can tell, these are in the adult aquatic stage.
Wow! Great video. This is like a month or two early, but other than Sunday it's been pretty warm up here for a few weeks. With a lot of melting going on there is plenty of water for those noisy little buggers to get frisky in.
I'm not sure where you live Dig, but in Southeast MI, it's still not warm enough for anything like frogs, newts, etc. There's still ice floating down the river.
We’re having some birds arrive much earlier than usual. I felt sorry for them a couple weeks back when six inches of snow fell after some unusually warm weather. They were probably wondering what the hell was going on. It seems like some biological clocks are off.
Apparently, the amphibians have decided it's spring.
Wow.. cool little guys!
Noisy little buggers, though.

There they are. That's amazing. Nice location.
Great, Dig.

That's interesting.

This is documentary quality. Nicely done Dig!
Thanks, TiG.
A bit early in the year for them to be peeping away.
Very good video, Dig.
Love the newts.

Surprised at the size of the tadpoles.
Very good video, Dig. Thanks for posting it
They were pretty big. I thought maybe they were bullfrog tadpoles, but I don't know how to tell.
Thanks, Trout.

Awesome videos, thanks for posting!
