All: I might mention that on Sunday Sept. 2 Eric Mills and I found a red eft (terrestrial juvenile Newt) crossing the dirt road near Western Light, Brier Island. The road was dry, but I imagine the creature could have made it across without our assistance - we put it in a flooded ditch to help it re-hydrate. We were a bit surprised that they had reached the island, although Anne Mills says that she had found them on there previously. Did they get there via proverbial birds' feet, or were newts released by someone on the island who had them as aquarium pets? Are "pet" newts usually of the regional, Red-spotted Species?
