  • Nice video, I've got lots of peepers at my place.

  • I havnt heard peepers in a while cant wait to here that PEEEEP!!!! PEEEEP!!! Again

  • Nice video!! Been searching five years admist a huge chorus and finally caught my first one! Went back to film them too. It helps to look for their distensible throat sacs. I have tried short peeping whistles with the little frog in captivity and he peeped back! He will actually match my speed and tempo. Will go tonight and try this experiment with them in the wild. Thanks for posting a very interesting video.

  • I like calling with them as well, it muffels out my foot steps.

  • Its pretty amazing. They will call back to you even in the wild, matching your speed and tempo. Also they will start "peeping" if you call to them even before they start chorusing! Have not yet seen a mating pair or tadpoles. The lack of pond weeds makes them easy to spot where you are. Nice video!

  • Well these ditchs are full of weeds now. It was just early in the year. Calling back works well with Ornate Chorus Frogs to.

  • How did you know those were leopard frog eggs?

  • @staffxsarge I didn't see your explanation to start with due to youtubes new UI, so I was a little lost with your previous comments.

  • Lol so cute eh !

  • @ariskk88 i know u were not calling the vid dumb...........im not gonna explain to u anymore..........

  • @staffxsarge I wasn't saying the video was dumb, I was saying the guy that hears them every day is dumb since you can't hear them every day since they are only out during the spring. Other then that I have no idea what your even talking about?

  • @ariskk88 i know im not stupid

  • @staffxsarge because there is a reason why they call them spring peepers.

  • @ariskk88 yeah.....how is that dumb?

  • @ariskk88 i do anyway.....if u go to the depths of the woods.............ull here a couple............i find them in the winter too...........but there r not many that peep then....i just got one today though....so they r more of the spring type frog........u dun know any way .........u dun live anywhere near me

  • aww they're so tiny lol.... they make a loud sound for such a small animal!
