Now that Maine frogs are starting to emerge and sing their spring songs, it is a good time of year to find and observe them. From 5 to 6 p.m. on Friday, April 9, Coastal Rivers Education Director Sarah Gladu will host an online program about Maine frogs.
Gladu will talk about the variety of different frogs found in the Damariscotta-Pemaquid region, how to identify them by their song, and how to locate them. Participants will learn about interesting behaviors and characteristics, and why frogs are important in our local habitats. Gladu will also discuss some threats to frog populations and share ideas for helping to protect frogs and other amphibians locally.
