Have you heard the Boreal Chorus frogs singing? Resounding from all corners of our pond and within the reedy shores of the marsh, you can hear these small frogs belting out their song in unison. In this video taken on our grounds, multiple frogs are singing together. However, don’t be surprised if you only hear their song from afar.
