As snow melts and warm spring rains fall, large puddles form in the woodlands of Winchester. Many of these vernal pools dry up by early summer, and it's a race against time for many fascinating creatures that depend on these temporary ecosystems. Come learn from resident Nancy Yin, of Winchester Trails & Mass. DEP, about the secret life and natural history of these fascinating creatures, their importance to our conservation lands and what you can do to help them --- You may never look at a puddle the same way again!
