Canada has no shortage of swamps but this one is my favourite, mainly because it is basically in our backyard (Canada scale). A 30 min bike ride gets me to a very scenic location that fills with magnificent frog concerto at dusk. Shot with Mini 3 pro and a Black Magic camera.

Gorgeous place well presented.

Thank you, relaxing way to end the day, though lately bears have started showing up for the night as well, chewed on my tripod cover that I left hidden in the forest in order to save weight carrying back and forth. Lesson learnt.

Magnificent forest views.    Got to love the frogs singing to you.  Superb job on this video.

Thank you, I'm trying to convince myself that they were singing for me only as well . Kept going back as I wanted to capture at least one in their natural habitat  but they camouflage so well I did not get to record a single one, so I have more reasons to keep going back. Irony is, I came across one on paved road close to my car in complete darkness, got that on my phone but obviously I was not going to put that in the video.

It's great that you now have a valid excuse or a good reason to go back for a return engagement at the frog concerto.  No doubt you'll eventually catch sight of one or more.

By the way I've run across some really big bullfrogs in the Louisiana bayous.  I'm mean really big and they sing loud also.  Here's a shot of one of those frogs.

Now that is some frog, I'm ok with bears but a frog like that could possibly make me reconsider my future visits .  No need to bring macro lens for this baby.

Beautiful Imagery.

Well, maybe leave it there and a wild life cam as well!

It seems they consider frog legs a delicacy in parts of Louisiana.  I've never tried any.  I think it would take quite a few frogs to make a meal though.  I think it best to leave them in the swamps.  The eat invertebrates, birds, bats, rodents, other frogs, newts, lizards, snakes, and turtles. so they do serve a purpose in the balance of nature.
