... although sadly we don't have treefrogs in the UK. In fact we only have =
three genuinely native spp here - Common Frog - Rana temporaria, Common Toa=
d - Bufo bufo, and the rarer Natterjack Toad - Bufo calamita, plus a few in=
troduced Pool Frogs. Neither do we have tree crickets etc. Compared to othe=
r countries its pretty quiet here at night!
