Anyone know what kind of bird that makes a small croaking sound like a little frog? These things drive me nuts trying to see them. They come around to check me out almost every sit no matter where I go. Every year they come around while I'm sitting a stand and just let out a little croak. I can't find them even with binocs. Must be some kind of Wren. And very tiny! Once its real cold they vanish. Head south I guess. I've never been able to pick one out.

I've just noticed that croak since I started hunting the bowzone. Never heard it out west. I just figured it was a toad even though some days it would have been too cold for an amphibian. I hear them all the time when I'm in the treestand. I'll have to try to see one.

hard to say unless I heard it...but ravens can croak...are you in an area with losts of evergreens...if so probably a raven. They can make a huge variety of sounds.

They're not ravens. They are on the ground and come close to your stand. Sounds exactly like a frog.

They are Rocky mountain barking tree frogs......I hear them all the time when I eat too much chili.
