Frogs!

[necturus]

L. and I took the Hyperdoggie to Cutler Park this afternoon, where we walked as far as Powell's Island and back. The spring peepers are out, and I heard a new frog that sounds vaguely like ducks quacking. It turned out to be the wood frog, which apparently is no longer Rana sylvatica but Lithobates sylvatica. Evidently the Politburo that rules such things has decided that Oceania is now at war with Eurasia, or some such.

But hey, frogs! Spring is well and truly here.
