There has been no significant rain for a few weeks now here in southern Vermont. With that and the unusually warm weather in March the vernal ponds are very low. The salamanders need a warm rainy night in spring to migrate to the vernal pools but unfortunately, they didn't have enough rain to migrate so not too many of them made it and are hiding out until they can. The wood frogs laid their eggs during that warm week in March which is very early. And the mosquitos have already made an appearance before April.
