FROGWATCH USA

Did you know frogs can make different sounds for different reasons such as chirps, barks, grunts, peeps, beeps, croaks and quacks? Join experts from FrogWatch USA to listen, monitor and identify native frogs who call Newtown home. A great opportunity to get outdoors while collecting important data that will help protect wetlands and local frog & toad populations.

FrogWatch USA is a national community science project focused on inspiring conservation through education. We are grateful to bring this important event to the community in partnership with The Peabody-Beardsley-Maritime FrogWatch Chapter.
