I credit their existence here to the full-block-sized drainage pond located a block away from me. I hope this year to get a good recording of their big mating crescendo. The first time I ever heard it, I thought it was some distant house or car alarm, a deep WOOOooo WOOOOoooo WOOOOooo. As I walked closer to the pond, I realized it was them, with individual calls all synching into a larger pattern of volume. It only lasts about half a day at that intensity. It falls off sharply and lasts only another day or two.

I want to catch it on video this year.
