I think something is dying in my back yard.

At first it sounded like rock being smacked on rock. But then I realized it was too rapid. It could be a chittering frog, but I don't think frogs chitter. It could be a possum in heat, maybe? I don't know. Anyone have an idea? It's 8 at night over here, so it's either a day time animal that is being killed, or a night animal in heat.

1. Anyone seen MFM?

2. Not enough info. Where do yu live?

Is it snowing there? Or too warm to snow?

What is a "chitter"?

What makes you think it's dying?

Have you gone to look? (got a flashlight?)

3. Florida. It's growing strong again.

I think it's a frog, dammit. Strangest frog I have ever heard. It sounds like someone is squeezing its throat. But he likes it.

7. If he were dying, he probably wouldn't be making a noise. You're pretty weak before you die.

If you think someone is harming him, get yourself out there and stop them. You need a flashlight. Time's a wastin'. Get out there and take a look.

My guess is when you go out there, it'll stop. That's what frogs do.

8. Yeah. I turned on the lights and it stopped.

13. Good. That means he's fine. Maybe he's lonely, or was singing, or mating. You STILL haven't gone out

there with your flashlight? Are you a'scared?

14. Not at all. I just don't want to be responsible for intruding in on a good thing.

4. I'll get out of your back yard as soon as I get thru chittering. (It's my special hobby)
