An Appointment with Spring: The Vernal Pools of Connecticut

The Marais Du Verdier is a rich marshland made up of four former fishponds totalling 120 hectares, with a variety of habitats (reedbeds, bulrushes, salt meadows, ponds, tamarisk groves). This recording captures the intense amphibian chorus after dusk, with many Stripeless Tree Frogs (hyla meridionalis) vocalising.

Many of us are familiar with managing forests for birds and mammals, but what about forestry for the frogs? In this episode of the Forest Overstory Podcast, we invite Lauren Grand of Oregon State University's Extension Forestry Program to discuss how forest management can influence amphibian habitat and what small forest owners can do to encourage a multitude of amphibious species on their properties.

Here’s a little story about a trio of janitors. 
Might have heard they worked at a well-known film school.
They picked up a few things other than trash. 
They might hate your movie, or if drunk think it’s cool.
Every now and then they get together for a lunch break. 
Trash talk some movie, or TV, or streaming.
Rodney and Jason and Sean – they all clean halls. 
If you listen close you can hear kids screaming: Film School Janitors!

At your local top-tier film-and-TV school, these three lurk the halls… sweeping… scrubbing…mopping…

What you drop, they pick up.  But that’s not all they’re picking up.

You see, after twenty years of cleaning up after film students, they’ve learned something – most movies are garbage.

So whenever their lunch breaks align, they catch up on the latest Hollywood has to offer.

In between taking out the trash, they’re talking trash.

Rodney – Sean – Jason… They are The Film School Janitors
