Due
to the western chorus frog’s nocturnal and secretive nature, these
frogs are not commonly seen.
The best time to see them is on warm
nights when they come out to call.

Darke County Parks
Frog Fever at
May Park P.A.L.S.
Darke County Park District invites children in kindergarten through 2nd
grade to join them on May 21st from 9:30am to noon to discover all
things frogs during Park P.A.L.S! This month everyone will meet at the
Nature Center on St. Rt. 502 west of Greenville to see what’s hopping
in the wetlands and search for all stages of the frog lifecycle in the
park. Students will learn what species live locally and what they can
do to keep these critical creatures from disappearing. Remember to
dress for getting wet.
Park P.A.L.S. is a series of monthly programs designed for students of
this age group who are interested in nature. P.A.L.S. stands for
Practicing And Learning Stewardship, and its mission is to develop
future earth stewards through meaningful educational opportunities and
hands-on experiences in the natural world. A fee of $3 is charged for
the program, and preregistration is required. For any questions about
the Park P.A.L.S. program or any other Park District programs or to
register for the May class, please call the Nature Center at (937)
548-0165.
