Follow our guides into the shimmering wetlands where spring peepers, frogs, and salamanders sing and splash their way into their breeding season. You’ll experience the symphony of nature under the stars — a joyful, family-friendly journey into nature’s nighttime chorus.  With the help of our FrogWatch trained experts, your observations are reported to a national citizen science database to contribute to amphibian conservation efforts.
