One of the great beacons of Spring is the sound of peepers (the frogs). The most fascinating thing to me about them is how narrow the temperature range is for them to be active. Today was a relatively warm day, but it was just cool enough for nary a peep from them. However, yesterday wasn’t a lot warmer, yet they were deafening in particular areas. If it’s too warm, you also won’t hear them.

The Eve of April |

This is the best sound to hear in Spring in Northeast Ohio, Spring Peepers!

The loudest little frogs have awakened from their long nap.

(Make sure your sound is on)

Peepers are a clear sign of Spring. I noticed them for the first time this week.

Here is 30 seconds of them peeping.

Surprise. The state that introduced more anti-LGBTQ legislation last year than any other state, brings it. This "deny marriage licenses at will" law is aimed to get appealed to SCOTUS, who will take down marriage equality in a heartbeat.

Tennessee Republicans just quietly overturned gay marriage

Public officials in Tennessee can now refuse to grant a marriage license to anyone at their own discretion, for any reason.
