Join our Land Stewardship Specialists for an evening of learning the calls of the different frogs who call Blandford their home. There will be a brief introduction to frog calls and habitats and will be followed by a hike to some of the vernal ponds and wetlands where we will most likely hear them! We will be collecting data throughout the evening hike on the app iNaturalist and will contribute to the John Ball Zoo: City Nature Challenge BioBlitz data collection. You may download this app to your phone prior to the event, but it is not required to attend the event. Instructions will be given at the beginning of the program on how to download and use iNaturalist for this special evening of data collection!
