Sloughs, marshes and ditches along the roads are brimming and finally getting some warm sun. So it won’t be long now before thousands of amphibians begin their annual overland migrations.
It usually happens on warm rainy nights in late spring or early summer. Young frogs and toads and other amphibians move out of their watery homes in search of land nesting sites.
They often cross roads in swarms of hundreds or even thousands during the migration.
Frogs and toads start life in the water as spawn. They metamorphose into tadpoles (or pollywogs) and learn to swim. They metamorphose again into tiny frogs or toads.
"Then, they leave the water in huge migrations seeking damp land nesting areas."
Once they mature to breeding age, they migrate back to water to lay their own spawn.
This is why, "Frogs" move onto paved roads when it's monsoon or raining season.
