Hi John

The bird-voiced are my absolute favorite frogs. This population does sound =
alot like the peepers. When you hear them from some distance, they are much=
 more bird-like and haunting. This recording just so happened to get them q=
uite close. I have another recording from a population about 100 miles to t=
he East that are much more birdy... will post soon.
