First Landing State Park, October 11

Rae Spencer

I woke this morning with the urge to make an audio recording of frog song. Nature seldom cooperates, when my plans are that specific, and today was no exception. Yesterday, one of the park’s small ponds was a cacophony of harsh croaks and lyrical trills. Today it was mostly silent. Here’s why:

    Sorry you didn’t get your audio recording. But you did get great photos!

    Rae, I was just looking at my blogroll about to click on your name when your “like” appeared. Thank you for that! We’re on the same wave-length it seems. 🙂
    (As usual I’m terribly behind reading blogs – but want you to know how much I love your blog and all the photos!)

    So often nature offers what we didn’t think we were looking for … well, life too! Lovely photos — we get red-bellied woodpeckers on our suet feeders quite often.
