Michelle saves the day

Earth month is drawing to a close and Michelle and I finally got around to taking all her Earth Day trees out to Circle Creek to be transplanted. While on that mission we noticed a whole mess of Pacific Tree Frog tadpoles in a puddle.

We figured that the puddle wasn't going to last long enough to get the tadpoles through to metamorphosis, so we launched a rescue mission...

It was hard work and we most certainly didn't catch them all...

...but those we did catch are now in a permanent part of the wetland.
