Spring things

Big world

A few pictures of spring things around Vermont.

Eft

The eft is out and about. The eft is a juvenile Eastern Newt.

Dragonfly

Dragonflies are skimming the swampy areas. This is a Chalk-fronted Corporal. Nice name 🙂

Toad

Toads are emerging. And hopping around.

Frog

Frog are active in the wet area and loud at dusk. This is a Green Frog.

Bluebird

Eastern Bluebird sitting on my well.

Couple

We had a couple that hung around but I don't think they successfully nested. He just finished feeding her in this shot. They spent alot of time around plus in and out of one of my birdhouses but have moved on now.

Sort:  

Chickadees moved into my bluebird house this year. In the past it has been Carolina wrens Never bluebirds.

Love that little Newt I never see any around here.

Curated with some Ecency votes

Wow rare find on that newt. I wonder if it will turn into a fire bellied newt? My wife found a juvenile one over here living inside a dryad's saddle full of water, it was just a gray one maybe about 3/4" long. My daughter would love trying to catch all those toads emerging. Bluebird looks to be a wild anarchist trying to sabotage the well.

Good to see amphibians, I miss them in my climate
