Froggy Style
Spent some time out in the field today and for early March did pretty well. The wood frogs have begun their explosive breeding cycle that will last for only about a week or two. The pair pictured below are in amplexus. Notice the mosquitoes feeding on the frogs. 
Also found:
Wood Frogs - Too many to count 
Spotted Salamanders - 7 adult males, all the vernal pools are covered with maculatum spermaphores
Spring peepers - only saw 3 but heard many more 
American Toad - just one, it's still a little early for toads 
Chorus Frogs - only found 2 and heard several more
We have the 17 year locus do out by the middle of March 
Looks as if its going to be a good year!

we had our big thing o locusts about a year or two ago. I don't think that i was out doors for anything except moving between the house and the car during that time. The noise was so loud and just got under my skin. I could even hear it while inside.

Brain, no I won't be in your neck of the woods this weekend. Have a amphibian walk Saturday and Sunday I'm heading for the mountains to search for coal skinks (Eumeces anthracinus) if the weather cooperates.
