does everyone here like frogs?

Sounds like you are talking about the ones that make a 'trilling' noise.

Do you know what kind of frog your 'angry duck' is? Our green tree frogs
could perhaps be so described.

We get used to them...sort of like getting used to the train tracks behind a
house.

I know several local ponders who hate them as much as I do. Our pond is
just outside my daughter's bedroom window and the noise is enough to keep
anyone awake at night. I often find her camped out on the floor of her
brothers' room. What can be done to minimize the attraction of them. Our
pond is not very naturalistic, as it is just a rectangular koi pond with
an
urn fountain in the middle.

It's really funny how one person's pleasure is another's pain. I love
the craoking of frogs - all kinds - and actually added bullfrog tadpoles
to my pond to ensure I would have frogs for a little while (at least).
I easily go to sleep listening to frogs croaking, crickets chirping,
owls hooting, bobwhites calling, etc. OTOH, light and vehicle noises
make me crazy. My s.o. and son claim I can hear a car horn honk a mile
away while the loud frog chorus outside does not bother me.

Some of the Pacific Tree/Chorus Frog eggs that jj gave me have been raised
indoors. (Others in the Frog Bog).
Today one of the little fellows has all his legs and has almost absorbed his
tail. Time for him to leave home and finish out his taddie-hood in the bog.
So out he went, so tiny and cute. Ready for froghood. Crossing my fingers for
him.

Did you get them in the mail? Or do you live near by?

I would love to have "musical" frogs, but mine don't make a peep. (this may
be a case of 'careful what you wish for')

Jim,

Are your tree frogs hangers on. The ones that show up at my ponds are
there for about three weeks and then they disappear and we don't hear
them until next spring.

Those little suckers sure can be loud.
