    Default I never knew...

    ...that frogs scream.

    Clearing some of the garden this morning, I came across a medium sized frog. I tried to shepherd it out of my way, and to somewhere safe, with my hand-brush - and it actually screamed. Weird!

    Apparently it's quite common (though I've never heard it and I've got a pond full of frogs in my garden)

    Oh my , how I remember those ' screams' . I had a huge pond that was stacked with Frogs, Toads and Newts... My cat used to make it his daily mission to try and ' capture' at least 1 daily . The only thing thing that gave him away was that scream. Nothing worked to stop him , endless time's I pushed him in ( shallow end) . Sadly , I had to leave all this behind when I ' downsized'... But , I will never forget it.

    Oh wow, that is odd. I've heard plenty of croaks and peeps in my time but never a scream, I didn't know frogs were capable of that.

    I really do learn something new every day.

    Best wishes for many sales to all,

    Reminds me of when I accidently strimmed the back legs off one, it didn't jump fast enough <cringe>. I think we were both too shocked to scream !
