Today I heard frogs.

I live in NW OH, only about 50 miles from Canada as the crow flies. It got up to about 70 today,... 70 in February! Flowers are coming up. I'm hearing birds in the AM I shouldn't be hearing for 6-8 weeks.

But not to worry, global warming is a myth!

It is truly a biologic wonder: prairie, wet prairie, oak savanna, vernal ponds, bottom land and riparian strips, living sand dunes, many nesting and resident bird species, some cacti, many deer.....a great place and many frogs.
