We have had gray tree frogs in our yard for years, and hearing them for the first time is one of my favorite parts of spring. Sadly, however, we have not had any this year or last year. The winter before last was exceedingly cold and snowy for our area, and I am wondering whether they just didn't make it. I miss their trilling tremendously.

Not only for their beauty (well, I think they are beautiful) but also because they are like the canary in the coal mine. Healthy toads and frogs are a good sign of a healthy environment. Not to mention all those pesky insects they eat. Without them we would have a silent spring. I love frogs and toads.
