Lakeside Frogs

Some of the amazing sounds we heard while hiking the Lone Star Trail through Sam Houston National Forest. It turned out to be a pretty challenging day for my gear with some pretty fierce wind penetrating my D50's Rycote windscreen and muddling up my recording a bit. If there's anybody out there that has had some success at solving this issue in the gusty wind, please message me. I was crouching in a bog-like area near the lake, listening to distant toads, when some much closer frogs and toads erupted with mass calls. The air traffic is pretty constant in this area but otherwise, I found the virtual silence I was looking for that day; a brief reprieve from the sometimes oppressive sounds of living in inner city Houston. Recorded with a Sony PCM D50 and inadequate wind protection!
