Exploring the Upper Texas Coast

I visited the Upper Texas Coast April 15-April 19.
First Stop was Brazoria National Wildlife Area in Brazoria County Texas.
Here is a 2 minute recording of Frogs, Toads and Insects heard at a marsh in the refuge.
There was quite a bit of wind and I used a leveler filter to try to mitigate some of the wind noise in the recording.
The Gulf Coast Toad sings near the end of the recording.

The evening of March 7 was warm following days of freezing cold, ice and heavy rains. The warmer evening brought out choruses of frogs all around the area. These calls were recorded at a small pond just north of town on a rural road.
This is a 9 minute recording.

Spring is bringing out a chorus of frog calls in NE Texas. I drove small roads north of Longview and found many places with load choruses of Spring Peepers and Southern Leopard Frog.
