Who knew!

 

 

Who knew there was such a thing as Barking Treefrogs!  They’re in the Southeastern U.S., but not normally in Texas.  But they are at Lost Maples State Natural Area.

During breeding season, they make a call like a barking dog.  I found a You Tube of what they sound like:

They are really loud, and they can sound off, off and on, all night long.  Their call is particularly noticeable to people sleeping (somewhat) in a tent.
