Do you know what this is?

After I got home from school today, I heard a very load noise outside, so I opened the door to see what was going on, this noise was very very loud, I took my camera and recorded the sound. Is this frogs? The temps here are in the 30's now, shouldn't frogs be in hibernation? I tried to get closer, and they had to be at least 50 feet away but as soon as I stepped off the deck, they stopped and never made any more sounds.

Woozles. Yep. Without a doubt. Woozles. Smile

There's no mistaking that sound: those are snipes. But why they are mating during daylight hours is beyond me. That's really odd.

I looked up woozles and snipes since I didn't know what either one was Smile

I found a sound recording for the snipe, and it sounded something like what I heard. Are they real loud boffer? Cause this was really really loud.

I don't think it was a woozle though.

It was so loud it was almost scarry...I thought it was maybe one of those "PREDATORS" you know like in the movie....I couldn't see anything...only hear it. Shocked

What a cool noise! I suspect nargles. Shocked

Uh oh! Nargles... I give up!

Funny, guys.

I actually never heard anything identifiable. I suppose I'm deaf, though.

Nope...not woozles or nargles or snipes, they're definitely iculoraredlacs. We had an infestation of them one year and they scared the bejessus out of me, too.

Hey Josh, was it really cold with a slight breeze that day? It actually just sounds like the trees to me.

I could hear all those sounds Josh.
There is often weird sounding stuff that comes from the direction of the neighbors pond affraid

but not in mid December. I would have gone back inside pretty quickly because, what creepy thing is gonna bite me!
