Bird? Animal? Snipe? What is this?

I have been hearing this sound for the last week or two, but I haven’t seen any new animals on the prowl.  What is it?  I also realize my screen is dirty :handgestures-thumbupright:

Don't seem as though that's one I've heard around here but I'll be curious to see what people say

I think Garry nailed it...tree toad.   They can be very load during the night.  We were camping at Kelly's show a few years ago...back of the Charlotte county fair grounds.  They were so loud, I was tossing stones and sticks up in this tree to try to get them to shut up.  

 

NO TREE TURDS WERE HURT THAT NIGHT.  :orcs-cheers:

According to the DEQ?  No.  And there won’t be until I dig a pond 👍

Definitely a tree frog.  They like to get in the gutters at my house, better acoustics.  They stick to windows at night and gobble up bugs, Its pretty cool to watch.

Yep... most likely one of these little guys.... they're ridiculously loud for their size. We usually see them at night stuck on the windows or siding around the lights which draw in their dinner!

Those fat little bellies make a mess out of the windows that's for sure.  The other night one was sitting on the exterior door knob in the dark.  I'm not sure who jumped farther.
