Listening to Frogs in Marais, Bourges France


This morning we walked around an area called the Marais, the marshes in Bourges, France, where 1500 local people tend gardens among watery trails and wildlife. In this video you can hear the frogs making their mating noises in the marsh. It's a lovely spot, surrounded by water and some of the gardens can only be accessed by special flat bottomed skiffs called plates. The bird sounds and peacefulness of this place makes it a must-visit for anyone who comes here.

Reminds me of the nights I spent in a monastery outside of Dalat, Vietnam.

While they sound quaint and foreign during the day, those frogs can get downright bothersome once you're trying to sleep!
