Every year I am ecstatic to hear the first calls from the pond. The frogs and other amphibians emerge from dormancy and get active, making noise in the water, crossing roads, mating, laying egg masses just beneath the surface of the water.
Try this today: Find a body of water near you. Hear anything? See anything? Any masses of eggs in the water? Journal what you find.
Here’s a resource to help with identification.
If you want to take on a project that you will remember forever, consider bringing some eggs home and following these instructions.
Seize the moment! We suddenly have more time than ever. Use it to work on things you want to get good at, things you enjoy and things that will benefit you and your family.
