Spring Peepers in Pisgah Forest, May, 2006.
The sounds of the Spring Peepers means Spring is here. Homer and I recorded these little frogs in Penrose, NC after a hard rain on a warm May night while a full moon was rising. Nocturnal animals, they have the ability to freeze almost solid during a hard winter freeze.
