Peepers

One of the first signs of Spring, the Peepers return. I don't know if they are hatched, migrate or come out of hibernation but regardless of their method of return, they have returned.

I remember the first Spring that I heard them. They had been peeping for several nights before I focused on the sound. Then they were deafening. How could I have missed them? The air is always slightly cool but unmistakably Spring.

Perhaps we can get Zoe to dig us a pond of our own so that they can be even closer.
