Notes
Logging one male and one female today, but found and caught TMTC. 1 by flipping, TMTC by catching them in a vernal pool. All in aquatic stage. The one on land was NOT in eft stage. temp was about 58 degrees. Method is listed as dip-netting but they were caught by hand. The newt on top is the male, the newt on the bottom is the female. (most likely gravid). Time and date stamp on the camera is totally wrong.
