Sounds of a Grenadian Night

As I was walking back from the library tonight, latest anatomy group discussion guidelines clutched in my hands, I enjoyed the slight warm caribbean breeze and idly wondered if it was possible to go to medical school in a more forbidding environment than the idylic one I currently reside in. It's been said, and I've found it to be true, that it really hits home that you're not home when the sounds of night are unfamiliar. The sounds of a Grenadian night consist, for me at least, of the distant rumbling of the ocean waves and these ever present light chirping noises.

I finally decided tonight that I'd track down the source. And, lo and behold, I did! Eleutherodactylus johnstonei, otherwise known as the 'West Indian Tree Frog' or 'Whistling Tree Frog' was the source of the chirping. They are small, only about an inch long or so and very cute.
