Mind your step this time of year. Be aware of underfoot friends. They’re all waking up from a long winter and trying their best to get to where they’re going.

It’s Tell a Friend Friday!
Please enjoy this photo I took of a rough-skinned newt (Taricha granulosa). It was pretty sluggish when I found it, likely due to cool temperatures. The driveway wasn't a safe place for it, so I grabbed it with a leaf (these newts are highly toxic) and placed it in a patch of leaves and moss.
Then tell someone you know about my work–you can reblog this post, or send it to someone you think may be interested in my natural history writing, classes, and tours. Here’s where I can be found online:

Found a baby rough skinned newt on the sidewalk right in front of my apartment. So I relocated it around back near a ditch with some cover.

We got this little rough-skinned newt off of the path & into somewhere dark & damp so that they can focus on regrowing their tail!

Look at my bright orange belly, all you predators, and despair!
I felt a compelling force to draw Andy as a roughskin newt my beloved.
