Lot's of noise along the Clarion

The Clarion River has so much to offer to all outdoor enthusiasts.  The river itself is so picturesque and as you paddle around each corner you are treated to natures splendor.  Aside from the scenery, there are loads of Gods creatures that make the river their home.  This particular day as we paddled along we would hit certain sections of the river that were particularly noisy.  At first we weren't sure where the noise was coming from so we paddled closer to the banks to investigate.  We quickly realized that all the noise was coming from frogs and I mean lot's of frogs.  We observed them for quite some time as they would fill their neck up with air and then let it all out which results in quite the loud noise.  Now imagine about 50 frogs doing this pretty much continually.  It was really cool to witness this firsthand.

  1. That's a pretty good Image of the Bull Frog making his presence known. Guess you could say he's calling for some female company. Paddling along the river in a boat is something that I never get to do. Main reason is that I don't own any kind of boat or canoe. Just where in PA is this?
