Frogs and toads are common in the property's wetlands, ponds, and forests. They eat insects and help control pest populations. You can hear their distinctive croaks and calls, especially on warm spring and summer nights.

Turtles can be found in ponds, streams and wetlands throughout the area.  Eastern Box, Common Snapping and Eastern Painted turtles predominate. Slow-moving but long-lived, turtles play an important role in our ecosystem by dispersing seeds and recycling nutrients.

Snakes are common in forests, fields, and wetlands. Eastern Garter, Black Rat, Worm and Northern Water snakes are just a few of the species that help control rodent and insect populations. These non-venomous reptiles play a vital role in keeping our local ecosystems balanced.
