Join us at Westmoreland Sanctuary for a night hike as we search for amphibians awakening from their winter slumber! As the temperatures rise and the spring rains arrive, frogs, toads, and salamanders emerge to begin their annual migrations and breeding season. Led by our naturalists, we’ll explore vernal pools, wetlands, and forest trails to listen for the calls of spring peepers and search for wood frogs, spotted salamanders and more. Along the way, we’ll learn about the fascinating life cycles of amphibians, their vital role in the ecosystem, and how we can help protect them. Date: April 4 & April 11 Time: 7 - 9 PM Location: Westmoreland Sanctuary Ages: Suitable for all, ages 5 and up What to Bring: Flashlights/headlamps, waterproof boots, and weather-appropriate clothing Call (914) 666 8448 or email Info@WestmorelandSanctuary.org for more info or to register.
