That is funny about the frogs! I was thinking the fireflies were most likely bitter tasting but maybe frogs like that.Originally Posted by aTailOf2Kitties
I'm seeing less and less of them every year for some reason, but I had one on my window just the other night. I read somewhere that toads love them and will eat them until their tummies glow.
We have lots of lightning bugs out my way. Would you like me to send you some?
Hi there. Ey.
Maybe we could do a trade. I have some mosquitoes I can swap for a few of those bugs of yours.

No, we have our own mosquitoes. I was going to give a two for one and send them along with the lightning bugs.

I was talking to a guy yesterday and asked him - He is a guy that lives in the area - what was in the trees making a HUGE racket.
"Cicadas", he told me!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cicada
These things are the noisiest things on the planet.
They stick up in the trees and make the loudest sound. It's starts off low and builds up for about 15-20 seconds then stops.
I laughed because I saw a news blurb about a man who was arrested for calling the police because the insects were making way too much noise near his home!

I hate those darn things! I get to listen to them most of the day here when I go outside - they are in full bloom now! Nasty, creepy looking monsters, and they leave their cocoons all over the place.I was talking to a guy yesterday and asked him - He is a guy that lives in the area - what was in the trees making a HUGE racket.

I had a little green tree toad suctioned to the dining room window last night - outside of course. And last night was somewhat cooler too, and the lightening bugs were putting on quite a show. A couple even hitched a ride on me and got in the house!

Hi there. Ey.
They are as noisy as hell. My house is surrounded by trees, and I swear all of the cicadas in the region live in my trees. We have Green Grocers, those things make one hell of a racket.I was talking to a guy yesterday and asked him - He is a guy that lives in the area - what was in the trees making a HUGE racket.

We have a Green Grocer here too, but he's a guy on t.v. that gives tips on buying fresh produce. He's not noisy at all!

Awwww...you don't like the cicadas? I can't say that they have ever bothered me. It's just a song of the summer.

I suspected those were your noisemakers, Richard! But at least now you have your answer! And Pomtzu, I am so completely jealous you had a tree frog on your window! So cool!

LOL,
No link to the GG?
The evenings are a real trip out here.
Back in CA there was the sound of the freeway, cars, a train line and the small airport.
I do miss the small airplanes. I did see hear one yesterday and had to stretch my head to see what it was!

I prefer to live in the country, no congestion, the air is better, and you get to eat as many cicadas as you want.
