Good Morning !
A sure sign that Spring is is the unforgettable sound of ” The Peepers “(Pseudacris crucifer)
If you live close to a pond or a swamp you can hear them loudly in the early spring. I live in an area with a few ponds on my property I can hear them in the evening ” love that sound ”

(Pseudacris crucifer) is a small chorus frog widespread throughout the eastern United States and Canada. They are so called because of their chirping call that marks the beginning of spring.
Spring peepers are small tree frogs. Their bodies have smooth skin in shades of tan, brown, green, or gray, with lines that form an X-shaped pattern on their backs. Their bellies are white to cream-colored, and they have dark bands on their legs and a dark line between their eyes. Spring peepers are well camouflaged to look like tree bark and have some ability to make themselves lighter or darker in order to better match their surroundings. CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO
