Oh Mary, I have the same problem, it's insane how loud they are. They only do this while they're mating in the spring so give it a few weeks and they'll be gone.If this is the same one I have then
here's some info.

the Northern Spring Peeper
(Pseudacris crucifer crucifer)
A high-pitched, rising "peep!" given about one per second; a male peeper may also give a lower-pitched trilled whistle, usually when another male has moved too close to its calling site.
Coloring:
Brown, tan or gray with dark slanting stripes on the back that usually form an X-shaped mark; the belly is white, yellowish or cream colored; this frog has some color-changing ability and can darken or lighten, depending on its mood or the surroundings.

Habitat:
Found in temporary and permanent ponds, marshes, floodings, and ditches; after the breeding season they move into woodlands, old fields or shrubby areas; common throughout the Great Lakes region, except in the far north along northeastern Lake Superior.

Confusing Species:
Striped Chorus Frogs have a light upper lip line and lengthwise stripes, instead of the X-like marking, on the back; Cricket Frogs are wartier and have a dark stripe on the inner thigh.

Breeding: Late March into May

FACT: Spring Peepers have large "vocal sacs" under their chins. They pump these sacs full of air until they look like a full balloon, then let out a mighty "peep" while discharging the air. The easiest way to see calling Peepers is to look for their shiny vocal sacs, which look like 25-cent pieces, inflating and deflating as they call.

The loud, peeping chorus of Spring Peepers means winter is finally coming to an end. These little frogs are among the very first to call and breed in the spring, often starting while there is still snow on the ground and ice on the lakes.

Its funny how some of us are driven nuts by that sound, and others of us are put to sleep by it!

We have tree frogs every year starting in early April and they
leave around July .
Last year, at one point, we stopped counting at 53 frogs around the pond.
They are very loud!

Mary, Ekling could be right too, depending on which state you
re in and how far up in zone 8. I live in Fl, and 8/9, the cubans have made it that far. they could well indeed be peepers, and they'll quit too, as everyone has mentioned :)
And Catherine, you're right...I love their song! :)

1sst...........53???? Oh my gosh! I usually have around 4 and they are so loud! I can't imagine 53! Tree frogs are so cool. I can get mine talking to me. I have one that spends his days on a little shelf on the outside of my deck.
I should be hearing them soon. I can't wait!

Here is a picture of a cuban that sleeps right on our front door bannister, in plain view, lol.
He turns himself white to camoflage because the bannister is also white :)

We mostly have leopard frogs and have become very used to they're low croaks. The gray tree frogs can be pretty loud but don't stay long and are nice to see. The cricket frogs are tiny cute little things that don't bother anyone. But when the toads come it drives my hubby nuts. He will shut all the windows and says they won't let him sleep. But they are all fun to have around.

The toads showed up at my pond last night, trilled all night long, and were still trilling when I left for work. You get used to it, but I understand about not being able to have the windows open. Mine were firmly closed last night, and I could still hear them.

Thank you for all the wonderful responses. I have done some research and it turns out that my noisy frogs are green tree frogs. Seems that they are quite common here in S.E. Louisiana. On cold nights they don't make as much noise. BUT, spring is here. We will deal with the problem as long as they are not a problem in my pond.

Any other information you have would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks to all, Mary

Hey ,I was thinking about what Pollywoggin said about the Cubans. We had 2 Cubans move into the house next door a couple of years ago, and sometimes they keep us up all night. They are really nice people but they can be quite noisy. If their frogs are nearly as raucous as the people are I can't imagine living with a bunch of them.
I can barely wait for the Fowlers toads to wake up and start trilling at my ponds.

LMBO garbird!!! You know I meant the frogs, lol,
Nicci

Too funny girls. Make me laugh all day.

My favorite Cuban started singing outside my bedroom window this morning at 3am. I hope he was'nt trying to woo me to join him for a little swim. I think he passed out after about 30 minutes.

I live in Sacramento and I decided not to make a pond when I dug it out to a good size. The rain filled the hole up with water and they kept making babies little half black half white balls. The sound made it hard to go to sleep. I may make a raised pond one day.

The frogs have started here too. It's just a matter of time before they get really loud. The spring peepers are the noisiest. On a good night you can't hear the tv if the windows are open. They start talking back and forth before dusk, a couple at a time. More and more and they get louder and louder, and then they all show up at the pond about 10pm/dark. They keep going until about 3 am - then they are totally quiet! Most of them head back to the woods but a few hang around the pond to give directions the next night.
The fish think the tadpoles are yummy but we still manage to raise lots of them in the "creek" (they like to lay eggs in shallow water) where there are no fish. Tiny little green tree frogs the size of your pinky fingernail are so cute.
Toad tadpoles aren't yummy so we raise alot of them too. come July there are little frogs and toads everywhere.

This is the follow-up for the delima we were having with the noisy frogs:

On Tuesday nite of this week, several of us went out by the pond after sundown and proceeded on a frog hunt. We were careful to only catch the Green Tree Frogs that were causing all the noise. After about 2 hours of scouring the pond and surrounding fauna, we totaled 22 frogs.

We were then able to relocate them in a more upscale neighborhood on the Bayou not far from our home. There are still a couple of renegades that need to be hunted and similarly dealt with but our sleep is a bit more restful now.

Roflmao, I love to go out and hunt frogs with the flashlight at night but I only take their pics, lol. The next door neighbor hates them but just put in a water feature so she better learn to love them. I have little frogletts appearing now. They are so cute!

We rented a house here while we were looking for one to buy. One early spring evening we were startled by a frog chorus that almost rattled the windows. We went looking for the locus and discovered the large above ground pool that was covered for the winter had hundreds of them sitting on the cover which was lower than it should have been because of a leak. The half empty pool was acting like the insides of a drum and amplifying the sound to painful levels. We suffered the rest of that night but the next day I stuck a hose under the cover and refilled it. The following night the frogs still sang but the sound was at much more pleasant levels.Sandy

Well all, the second frog hunt went off without a hitch. BUT they are on to us now. Not quite as many as there were before and the ones that were left are the more intelligent ones.

Took our lights out by the pond and as we would move towards the sounds they would stop croaking. It was really spooky. Didn't know frogs could think like that.

We wound up with another 17. This time we took them in a different direction just in case they would run into some of their previous buddies. Don't want them ganging up on us and making a suprise croaking. There are still several more to go and my Grandson is all into "Froggin".

It is more peaceful and quiet around here. Somehow I kind of miss the little buggers.
