Quite a chorus of peepers right off route 135 in Hopkinton!

We had 1.8mm of rain overnight on 3/13 so the move was on! I had 8 spotted
salamanders and 7 wood frogs in one of my minnow trap this morning. There
were 20 wood frogs in another. Too many wood frogs to count in the ponds
with a few peepers. This evening there were well over 40 peepers in one
pond.

Seems there is a 50% chance of rain finally on the way for Friday. Hopefully
that will give these little ones some water as most areas of one pool are at
5-6" and dropping fast.
