muikabochi 208 Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I'm sure it's a bit later than usual but I came back home this afternoon to the rice fields filled with water and the frogs making their noise. And one heck of a noise it is too. It must be the first frenzy as they come out of hiding, can't imagine whats going on out there! Sounds nothing like this. Link to post Share on other sites

snowdude 44 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Some of the farmers here have just started to flood their fields, certainly later this year compared to others. I think because the night temps have been to cold to plant the rice. Still getting down to low single digits here most nights. Another few days or so then the frogs will be singing loudly until the rice starts to grow and the water dries up more. Link to post Share on other sites

muikabochi 208 Posted May 20, 2011 Author Share Posted May 20, 2011 Not sure about a date, I think they go on until the cicadas take over the noise duties. Link to post Share on other sites

snowdude 44 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 When I took my dogs for a walk last night and walked past some rice fields filled with water it was like walking past a frog orchestra. They sure like to make their presence known. Link to post Share on other sites

pie-eater 207 Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 As with all tattoos, they'll definitely mean something really 'deeply personal' to him. I think this one is probably to remind him to shave, but obviously in this case it's not working. Link to post Share on other sites
