The small pond in our back feild has a pretty fair diversity of wildlife, but the most notable sound that comes from it are the frogs. Lots of frogs. If I had to guess, last night I heard at least 20 different voices. There will be more I'm sure. Last year there were hundreds. Only a few stuck around through the entire summer, but in the spring... WOW!
I assume that for each croaking frog (I'm also assuming only the males croak) that there will be a corresponding female frog, so in my estimation there are about 40 frogs that have woken up from their hibernation, unless of course the same thing happens to frogs that happens to lonely guys that call those dating chat lines and realize that everyone else on the phone with them is just another lonely dude.
