Visitors exit welcome center onto the south porch; then directly onto the main trail and into the sanctuary.

In the fields, asparagus gone wild looks fern-like, but look for red berries.
Bullfrogs are making their “Jug-o-Rum” calls from the marsh. While this bullfrog looks greenish, look at the line that runs from behind the eye, around the “ear” (Tympanum) and down to the left foreleg.
Green frogs have a dorsal line all the way down their backs from behind the eye. They sound like a banjo being plucked and sometimes they squeek.
