Where to hear spring peepers in Newton.

You can also hear them down by the George Wright Golf Course in Hyde Park (although I'm betting they're really in Stony Brook Reservation, which is next to the golf course).

Kelly reports that with the rain finally over and the temperatures finally up there, the spring peepers are out northwest of Boston:

... There must be hundreds of them out there now, all singing. Every once in a while, a mourning dove coos. ...

A Seattle man has been charged with a slew of crimes that involved an alleged shoplifting, assaults and a pet duck named Mr. Peepers. OK, has absolutely nothing at all to do with Boston, but it does involve a duck named Mr. Peepers, and you know you have to read it.
