Spring peepers are coming out of hibernation making their distinct chirping sounds. 🐸 Have you heard them? DYK, due to the spring peepers' permeable skin, they are highly sensitive to pollution. Because of this sensitivity, spring peepers are good indicators of the health of their surrounding environment. Peepers = healthy water and forest! | New Jersey Forest Service

Spring peepers are tiny frogs whose calls typically herald the beginning of spring. It's hard to believe that it can be difficult to spot one since they turn our wetlands into a spring symphony—this little guy was spotted by chance here at Teatown. | Teatown Lake Reservation

The Spring Peepers are still going strong. A sound of spring, the chorus of peepers is the sound of the male frogs calling to the females to mate. Only male peepers can sing. They are nocturnal insectivores that are only about one to one and a half inches long. What a sound from a tiny frog! Their calls have registered up to 90 decibels about the level of a lawn mower! These frogs are common but the loss of wetlands is impacting their environment. #springpeepers #peepers #watershed #wetlands #gr
