During the springtime, Frogs are part of nature's symphony. Join us for a hike to the wetland areas of Prescott Farm. We'll begin indoors to learn about the springtime habits of the frogs we are most likely to hear. Then, we'll hike out to our wetland areas to see if we can identify which frogs are at Prescott Farm. No prior experience frogging by ear is necessary.
