Amphibian migrations

By Daniel Barringer, Preserve Manager

This evening or tomorrow evening are likely to be warm enough and wet enough for more amphibian migrations. We don’t know whether salamanders and frogs will be heading toward or away from the wetlands where they breed (maybe both), but keep an eye out for them crossing rural roads near wetlands. Spotted salamanders and wood frogs are the most common migrants, but there could be other species too.

Please be cautious of them if you are traveling after dark in the rain.
