Notes
Flipped under rock in stream. Initially saw its tail as it attempted to hide under another rock and assumed it was a salamander larva. Did not realize it was a tadpole until I caught it, and did not realize it was a tailed frog tadpole until it held onto my finger just like it would hold a rock.
