Occasionally, when just sitting there unused, a single bubble of air

more). *The toilet has zero problems as far as function go.
I think we first noticed this last year but it went away after a
while. *It returned a couple months ago.
I've read that a clogged waste vent could cause this. *I've looked in
them (from the roof) an don't see any blockage. *The other toilets in
the house don't have this problem either.
ideas?
Can you really see down the vent, maybe run water and a garden hose
down it.
My thoughts exactly. Tree frogs hang out in the deep shadows of the
pipe :-/
