Frog Calling Training

Can you tell a spring peepers from a wood frogs? What does a carpenter frog sound like and do they live in your neighborhood? Join GSWA and FrogWatch partners Eric Jackson and Tedor Whitman from Cora Hartshorn Arboretum for this hands-on training session to learn your frogs and even become an official FrogWatch volunteer! FrogWatch is a citizen science program using volunteer observations to establish long-term and large-scale data on amphibian populations. Learn how to recognize different species of frogs and toads from their appearance and calls, and how to record your observations into the database. We will work with you to find monitoring locations and you will be frog counting in no time!
