Observing Western Chorus Frogs in Colorado?
I read that the western chorus frog lives in most of Colorado. I
would like to observe one, but so far I have had no luck. Would anyone know of any specific lakes or ponds in Colorado where one such frog has been spotted lately? Thanks |

Observing Western Chorus Frogs in Colorado?
Chorus frogs are best observed at mating time. They are darned hard to find other times of the year. I would expect that frogs in the lowland areas will be mating before frogs in higher elevations. Try a google search. There are sound files of their calls in a lot of sites so you know what to listen for. And check if Colorado has a native amphibian page, our state posts maps of locations of all species of frogs. And someone published a book of amphibians of WA and OR so you might search and see if there is a like book available for Colorado. kathy :-) A HREF="http://www.onceuponapond.com/"Once upon a pond/A |

A column found on the right will give you the names of the frogs found in that area, click on that for a "bio" and its call. Interesting site . . . Lee "Jean-Pierre Abello" wrote in message om...
