There are frogs calls during the day...but it just seemed that the
amount they were using seemed incongruous...but I could be wrong.

Yes it's a gorgeous soundtrack...nature soundswise.  They worked with
the Cornell Lab to recreate a lost soundscape...a chorus of animals
from the 17th century that of course does not exist anymore.  They
even recreated the call of the extinct Carolina Parakeet for the movie.
