FrogWatch USA

a western chorus frog trilling in the waterStarting in 2016, PLE began training citizen-scientists in western Pennsylvania to be FrogWatch USA volunteers.  FrogWatch USA is a nationwide, chapter-based, citizen-scientist program where volunteers help monitor frog and toad populations by recording and reporting information on their calling activity.  For more information, checkout the FrogWatch USA website.  Also, checkout this spotlight story on a FrogWatch training we did at Frick Environmental Center in Pittsburgh.

PLE schedules at least two volunteer training sessions each spring.  Feel free to send us an email if would would like to be notified of future training sessions.
