This morning I was heading out to work,I was about to jump into the truck,I couldn't believe what I was hearing......I heard one, then two then a few more jump in on the chorus & all together they began back & forth........Spring peepers are here!:lama:
It won't be long now.Woohooo!

Yup. I heard a couple last weekend. Won't be long now. :bl:

Same here. I first saw a couple hopping across the road last Tuesday night, then heard them that night. Since then, I've heard them every night. Even on the really cold nights, they've been peeping like crazy

sooo close, yet sooooo far.

2 more weeks is all i'm gonna last. after that it's fishin time. i dont care if it's snowing ::knock on wood::

they are my bride's favorite sound of nature :love: :love:.

first thing in the mornin' ~as she crushes my Danny :humpty: :humpty:

:hihi::hihi::hihi:

Surface temps for the Boston area are still in the mid 30's. I have no data on Quincy Bay or inside Hull, maybe a tad warmer due to shallower water. Man, we need Spring to get here. Anyone have an idea when the flounder start to show? Maybe when the waters hit 50? Got to get out, been a really long bad Winter.

Flounder in early May Rick.

i watch temperatures extremely close....(hourly!)
and next week we finally will be showing temperatures
that are above 32 degrees for the low
other than that......... we have been flat lining _______:blush:
this of course is at 600 feet above sea level
(in my neck of the woods)
but in my opinion it is only when we reach
this plateau ....that the upward trend begins...
and after that the infrequent dips below freezing
are of no consequence.

Saw a king fisher and a red winged blackbird last weekend.

lol

Down here on Long Island I was fishing with a Kingfisher last week. I have been hearing Red winged Blackbirds for a few weeks and saw Gulls feasting on cinchworms. :soon:

I just saw an osprey.... :D

i know!! i've been watching the surface temps for the past month.. they spike every now and then at around 41 (usually after rain), and i get all excited. then they drop back to mid 30's and i cry. still... two weeks and i'm there. maybe throw on some clams in some deep water see if i can't find a cod or something, while tossing around some new gear or something.

what the hell is a spring peeper?

Spring peepers are little frogs that mostly reside in wetlands,brooks pond ect this is the time of the year when they come out of hybernation and get ready to do:love::humpty:
Try and pay mind to the woods next time you walk out of your house weather it be morning or evening.
