We had our chare of tree frogs in SC, as well. They sounded like little
Chihuahuas barking, but with time the sound was soothing enough to help me
go to sleep - especially on rainy nights.

Dave,

The coqui's are driving the Hawaiians crazy. They make noise .... very
loud
noise! In Puerto Rico they embrace the coqui and print their image on
everything available. They are cute frogs to tourists but if I had one
outside my bedroom window at night I'd probably hate them too.

I guess the big concern is that the Hawaiian Islands are a closed
ecosystem
and a frog such as this will tip the balance.

While in Hawaii I heard much about the evils of the Caribbean Tree Frog
that
is running amok there. I guess they are very noisy. They have no
tadpole
stage and the babies sure are cute (about 3/16" long). There was also
talk
of "Greenhouse Frogs". They are even smaller. Does anyone have any
info
on
them?
