Berry Springs Preserve Herps of Texas report, 21Nov2020

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, there was no group outing to Berry Springs Park and Preserve again this month. However, two people wearing face masks checked on the amphibians while staying at least six feet apart from each other at all times.

The monitoring period was 17:30 - 18:30.
Participants were Kathy and Amy.

Air temperature = 68 deg F
