DESCRIPTION: As the sun sets, the forest comes alive with the magical sounds of spring peepers! These tiny frogs may be small, but their calls fill the evening air, welcoming the season. Though they can be tricky to spot, their chorus is a sure sign that spring has arrived!\n\nJoin us for a family-friendly sunset hike through Wildlands Conservancy's South Mountain Preserve, where we’ll listen and look for spring peepers, salamanders, and other signs of spring awakening in the woods.

We will be conducting a frog call survey, listening carefully to identify different species based on their unique calls.
