A sure sign that spring has arrived is the nightly chorus of peeper frogs that can be heard throughout the night.  I had to work rather late this evening and did not return home until ~10 pm.  As I drove down ORNAC (Old Road to Nine Acre Corners) I could see dozens of frogs hopping across the road (also a number who were run over in the process).  I pulled over and used my flashlight to illuminate the little fellow above.  He was quite cooperative, remaining still as I struggled to hold my light with one hand and properly focus my camera with the other. It made for a very satisfying conclusion to a very long workday.
