***** This program has been POSTPONED due to rain. We will try again on May 7th! *****
When the first early spring rains come, thousands of salamanders, frogs, and toads emerge from their winter slumber. They make short, stealthy migrations through the forest to breed and lay their eggs in vernal pools.
What makes a vernal pool so special?
What other unexpected creatures are swimming in its shallow waters?
Come see for yourself! Explore the magic of a vernal pool in springtime. Also, learn what local people are doing to protect Waterloo's amphibians...and what other big plans are in the works!
