The Frog Chorus

So am sitting here tonight listening to the deafening frog and toad chorus rising from the vicinity of the big pond and the creek.

I'm telling you it will periodically rise to a crescendo and tail off.

Then begin again. Rising and falling.

Suddenly, without notice, it sometimes stops completely.

A long silent pause.

Then it starts-up again.

This may sound crazy but I have a vision of some big old warty amphibian standing atop a stump conducting the whole chorus.
