vernal pool

Somewhere between 100 to 200 wood frogs in the vernal pool on the East-West Road (close to Black Mountain Road).  Unbelievable sound.  We helped cross 10 salamanders, and 10 wood frogs.  Others died while we watched, and couldn't stop the on coming cars.  Then in the distance we saw four pairs of big white eyes on the land  and then in the water.  The raccoons were feasting.
