Notes

Saw a small movement near the edge of a very small creek. Cupped my hands in the water and picked up all the water and mud in the area. Slowly letting the water/debris out revealed this salamander larvae. Researchers studying the population believe that it may be a range extension for Southern Two-lined Salamanders.
