Frog Frolics at Towner Hill
|
 Its time to mark your calendars for the now Annual Frog Frolics at the Towner Hill Preserve. It can be hard to predict when the frogs will be in full chorus, especially given the mild winter, so we plan to hold hikes on both March 11th and March 18th at 1:30 pm.
Meet at White Silo parking lot for a short hike up to the vernal pool nestled between the double hilltops of Towner Hill. The hike will be an hour and a half or less. Routes will be dependent on conditions, but there may be a choice of a hike up Towner Hill or into Irene's Woods (more flat terrain). Let us know if you have a strong preference. Let us know if you plan to come by calling 860-354-0260 or emailing naromi@sbcglobal.net. Bring water and wear sturdy shoes. There are many places in Naromi Preserves that these Spring concerts can be heard. Towner Hill and the Herrick Preserve are the two best places to hear ans see the most activity. Click here for a video featuring the three frogs at the top of this email.
