Backyard Ramblings May 4th 2008
I had a chance to spend some more time at the wetlands behind house. Bathing among the thousands of frog eggs, I found a stunning spotted salamander (picture to the right). Really an amazing animal and the first one I have ever seen. I found some more red efts (Took this of an eft last year) and finally spotted the noisy little Spring Peeper. Finals are finally over so I have some quality time now to wander around the forest in the back. I added some new species to the list below.
