A small but penetrating chorus of Spring Peepers can be heard calling
almost any time, day or night, in the woods in E Dalhousie, Kings Co
now. I see Patricia Chalmers also noted one calling in Bedford. This
one was perched on the camp windowsill late Tuesday night:

I took the side view using the iPhone flash. When I photographed the
Green Frog I posted earlier I could not use the flash b/c the frog's
eyes mirrored back the intense light (I used a flashlight instead).
But the Peeper's eyes did not. A difference in eye anatomy between
primarily daytime/nighttime, aquatic/terrestrial frogs? Or just the
direction of the light?
