Frog and Salamander Hunting

Monday, March 26, 2012

Ever since my friend Kim told us there are salamanders and frogs that you can catch at our local pond, I knew we had to go. I knew the boys would love it and I am always up for anything that will get them out in nature a bit more. Today was the day. Kim and her girls and some neighbor girls met us at the pond with their three nets and the kids had a blast. They didn’t catch any frogs, but they did catch two salamanders. I don’t think I have ever seen a salamander up close before…they’re kind of slimy and alien-like. Oh well, the kids had fun.
