Right now I have a container of 11 tree frogs to relocate 3 miles from
my house. I *HATE* tree frogs - they are extremely loud and obnoxious. I'm not saying nothin'. ~ jan And here I sit wanting toads, tree frogs, and green frogs, and I get nada. Seven springs now. Unfair! Alan And I can't understand why any one would be upset with the music of randy frogs.... the problem as I see it is, people get bothered by 1 or 2, because they sound like kids jumping on old-style bed springs. If they'd let the numbers build up it becomes white noise. Too bad original poster doesn't live next to my neighbors who also hate frogs, so I have to go out and catch my tree frogs once the numbers go above 2. ![]() If they were smart they'd put in their own pond, that way they couldn't hear my frogs over their own. hehehe. ;o) ~ jan ----------------- (Do you know where your water quality is?) |

The problem is some people want some fantasy version of nature like in a Disney cartoon. They haven't grown up enough to understand that nature isn't like 'Bambi'. My brother lives about 5 miles from the nearest town. Deer wander across his yard - and browse in his garden. Frogs live in the low spot in the pasture and eat insects - and sing at night. He'd rather have to buy vegtables in town than live in town. He figures deer are better neighbors than people. My in-laws bought some lakeshore land and were upset when they discovered that along with the view and the ocassional waterfowl they also got frogs, insects, muskrats, pocket gophers, a few racoons, and a lot of obnoxious fishermen who didn't understand the concept of 'Private Property'. A few discussions with the sheriff and game warden solved the fisheman problem, but they never came to terms with the wildlife. Myself, I've got a trumpet vine growing near the koi pond. In addition to providing shade and beautiful orange flowers, it attracts hummingbirds and bees. Since both seem to ignore me, they don't upset me, but a relative wants me to get rid of the vines because she knows someone allergic to bees. I suggested she could always stay away, that way she wouldn't have to worry about the bees. PlainBill |

The squirrels once again got all our pears. :-( Frogs live in the low spot in the pasture and eat insects - and sing at night. He'd rather have to buy vegtables in town than live in town. He figures deer are better neighbors than people. He's right. In many cases the wildlife are better neighbors. We live in a rural area and our "human" neighbors are fine people. My in-laws bought some lakeshore land and were upset when they discovered that along with the view and the ocassional waterfowl they also got frogs, insects, muskrats, pocket gophers, a few racoons, and a lot of obnoxious fishermen who didn't understand the concept of 'Private Property'. A few discussions with the sheriff and game warden solved the fisheman problem, but they never came to terms with the wildlife. Here we have city people who buy a home in a subdivision next to a farm and then complain about odors and noise early in the morning. They want to be in the country but not have all those country annoyances. Myself, I've got a trumpet vine growing near the koi pond.

Since both seem to ignore me, they don't upset me, but a relative wants me to get rid of the vines because she knows someone allergic to bees.
