Well, this unusually warm day has really hastened spring along! All sorts of things were out and about. While I was out in my favourite west end wooded area looking at beeflies, butterflies, garter snakes, and four species of frogs, Jeewanthi was at FWG seeing some really neat critters. She saw two painted turtles in the pond, so they survived another winter! She also described some calls from frogs in the pond, and managed to take a couple of shots. These turned out to be wood frogs. They are certainly calling vociferously in many other locations right now.
