My first try at a video blog. Actually it's just for the sound, but you get to see me moving the camera around slightly.

Cool!
I'd say they are narrow-mouth toads - very close to the high-pitched shrill of ours, but although I've seen a couple of fowler's, I haven't specifically heard them. So could be wrong.
We call our narrow-mouth toads "microheads". They call from under logs and rocks, seldom coming up to the surface. It does make them fairly easy to find. They are really weird looking!
Very cool. Was that hard to do?
Wayne, listening to the recordings on that site, the Fowler's sound a lot like the NMTs, only the pitch is slightly lower.
No, it wasn't hard, it was so easy it was almost scary! :)
I COULD HEAR THEM!
Way cool. Now I want to see the feature length version. Love the sounds of summer evenings.
I'm not sure what they are, but I believe that we have those here in Louisiana as well. I know that I have heard them before.
Anyone familiar with butterflies, please drop by my blog and help me identify the butterflies in my photographs. I am pretty sure about the two Swallowtails, but I'm not sure at all about the other one. I can put up another picture of the one I'm not sure about, showing the top of its wings, if that would help. I just have such a hard time getting photos to load that I settled for the three that worked.
That was amazing - never heard the likes! Thanks for taking the time and going to the trouble ... :)
I was afraid to try--between Windows98 and a dialup connection, I've had some bad experiences trying to access video files. But I tried it, and I liked it!!
I love the sounds of summer frogs and other insects and animals! I remember sitting on my grandmother's front porch and just listening as night closed in.
Right now, we have lots of cicada chirping. Very loud, but familiar.
