It sounds to me like a bullfrog. I live not far from the Wenas campground
and have a frog pond. A C-141 flew over quite low about 10 days ago and I
went outside to look at it (to see if it would make it over the hills!) and
heard a bullfrog croak (they do sound like a cow mooing to me). My neighbor
has a fish pond so we both checked out our ponds and found nothing. Two days
later I was looking at the pond in the evening and saw a bullfrog head
sticking out! My husband and I captured it and, taking a 9-year-old neighbor
boy who's really into bugs and birds and nature in general with us, we took
the bullfrog (a female) to a place near the Yakima River where we'd heard
bullfrogs just a week before.
