Froggy's froggy's everywhere!


This little froggy was a present from Kate's cat Rufus. Here he is sitting next to a plug hole. He is so tiny you can't even tell it's a plug hole! Anyway, I'm a bit fascinated by frogs at the moment as we have been surrounded by them! You can't see them but in the evenings, out the back of the house, you can here them everywhere clicking and singing. It's kind of like a cricket noise but more froggy. I heard them for the first time a few nights ago. Apparently they are Boreal Chorus Frogs and they live underground through the winter and actually freeze solid! After the snow all melts, they defrost and come out of the ground and start clicking. It's a very nice and soothing sound to listen to when going to sleep.
