Completed March 21, 2021 – the first day of spring in what looks like a better new year – these little darlings represent both types of our local endemic and endangered species: the red-bellied brown southern type and the gray northern. Where they sit in lines, they’re in construction order.

The one on the left has a home now, but any of the others could be yours right away, pickleweed stand included. Write to the Salamander to discuss details of the adoption.
