Spotted salamanders migrating


Here is the beginning of the 2013 migration in Northern Ohio. Temps were in the 50’s all day long and an inch of rain fell throughout the day. As the showers passed in the evening, things quieted down as a cold front was moving through. Seen were Spotted salamanders, Jefferson’s salamanders, Wood frogs, Pickerel frog, American toad and Spring peepers. I heard Spring peepers, a chorus frog and the Wood frogs were tuning up. My best guess is that things will come to a grinding halt due to temps in the 30″s and 40″s for the next 7 days or so.
