Last night I stayed at Codi and Jimmy's. After telling them all about the frog experience I had at school, we all (Kate too :) ) decided to go for a night hike to the wetlands behind their house. the sound was deafening. Pacific Chorus Frogs (Pseudacris regilla) were all singing so that we had a hard time hearing each other. Occasional (and introduced) Bullfrogs (Rana catesbeiana) made their voices hear too, but they fortunately did not overwhelm the natives.
I caught another frog when we got to the edge of the water because I wanted to double check the species... How fun indeed! I don't think I did too much of this when I was younger so I am happy to make up for lost time now.
