Following the success of last years frogs, toads, and newts at Pleck Meadow’s Wetlands, we are excited again this year to see amphibian activity in the ponds.
PROSPECTS and volunteers are working hard to manage the ponds by reducing invasive weeds, preventing the establishment of Himalayan Balsam, removing litter, increasing wildflower species, and preventing overflows during severe weather.
How you can help amphibians at Pleck Meadow:
- Do not let dogs in any ponds as they can trample the spawn/tadpoles and also leech pesticides into the water from flea/tick treatments.
- Do not walk or wade in the ponds.
- Report non-native species.
- Do not litter.
Thank you for treating the wildlife ponds with respect.
