Where's that noise coming from?

Ever hear a strange noise and wonder what it was?
Well on Friday evening that happened to me a few times.
I walked by the front of Kim's house and heard this weird noise coming from the direction of the house. I stopped and listened again, hoping to localize it. I had no luck. To me it sounded like it was coming from the wall and it sounded something like a chipmunk.
I figured the critter must be under the house and went about my business.
A while later I was sitting on her deck enjoying the sunset when I heard it again. This time it was right by my head and sounded like it was in her petunia planter along the rail of the deck.
I hopped up out of my chair determined to find the source. I did. It was a little green tree frog.
As the sun went down I noticed another one this time clinging to the side of her house. A few minutes later I saw another one and another one in the same vicinity of the house. Before long I learned the source of the sounds I heard earlier in the evening. There were at least a half dozen tree frogs sleeping the day away behind the shudders of her house.
They were coming out as dusk set in, to not only feed, but I am sure to entertain us!
Not sure how many there are taking up residence in her home, but sure was fun to watch them!
