Although some places had a significant amount of rain last night, we still running a deficit and the smaller Frogwatch sites are showing evidence of this. Both monitoring sites at Bradley Woods have all but dried up with a spongy detritus lined bottom. After a day in the 80’s and a visit temp of around 70 degrees, I figured the rain soaked visit would be more productive… I did see some large male and female Bullfrogs at the lakes edge along with some Green frogs and 2 American toads. The American toads were not calling and only 1 Green frog gave it’s distinctive plunk. On the Western side of the pond, I was welcomed with a Green frog’s alarm call!
