Frogging

Even though the DNR decided not to support the frog and toad survey this year we decided we had to go and check our route in Kannabec County to hear what we could hear. We could hear green frogs and a tree frog and red winged blackbirds and veerys and dogs barking and cows mooing and also some fireworks blasting off in the distance.

We saw at least 40 deer.  This gangling deer ran ahead of us and kept looking back to see if we were still coming.  This deer is on Teal Road (just about the infamous place where I got my car stuck in a frost boil for several hours) and had the gait of a young colt.
Friday night was a  lovely night to be out exploring swamps!
