about 100 metres west of the parking lot, along the rail trail, is a =

today the marsh is mostly open water but still with snowbanks on the =
sides, thus very cold water temperature, no frogs seen.

off-ramp for cars getting off from the west, is a roadside ditch with =
water & cattails, that every year holds calling spring peepers =
abundantly enough to form a calling chorus.  The water in the ditch is =
very shallow but open, with no snow left.

especially since we are going to experience warming temperatures through =
Monday, May 3, and beyond?
