As a citizen scientist\, their observations will be uploaded to a national database. This is a great opportunity for adults and families alike to get outdoors and experience our native wildlife. Sign up for session 2 below! \nClick to Sign up For Session 2\nYou do not have to be a frog or toad expert to be a FrogWatch volunteer!
