Notes
Four newts seen crawling on bottom of pool in stream - two pictured in-situ, and one of those plus one other picked up for photos. In-situ photos were poor due to some turbulence and reflections. More newts were seen downstream. Newts in this area had a striking red shade that I have not seen anywhere else.
