The Newts, We Love Them!

Here's a newt we found in the woods.

Exploring the Pond at Walden West


They are helping to remove invasive duck weed from the pond, and clearly enjoying their time at science camp.

Now we're making some conclusions about the health of the pond based on the aquatic animals we found.
