Fall Frogs

Although the temperatures are in the 50’s and 60’s (30’s and 40s at night), there are still frogs to be seen in the Wetlands. Bullfrogs and some Green Frogs may be active throughout the winter. When I say active, I don’t mean that they’ll be hopping about the landscape as in summer, but perhaps sitting quietly in a nice sunny spot out of the wind. You may not always be able to find them, but they’ll be there.

Bullfrog tadpoles can also be found throughout the winter.
