Will you post something when you think the spotted salamander migration might be in April or March depending on the weather, I always seem to go at the wrong time and I don’t want to miss it!

I often don’t know until the day of the migration…weather needs to be mid-40’s or higher, with rain during the day and into the night. That’s what I go by!

I saw a frog hopping across the road in West Keene NH last night.

Mary, I read your book each day and love it! Do you or anyone you know what companies use Castoreum from beavers? I’d like to be aware of the listing of “natural flavoring” from this wonderful creature. I can’t imagine companies pay to send people to beaver mounds which leads me to ask wonder an unpleasant thought of how companies get this castoreum. Appreciate anyone who has a list of companies using castoreum. Many thanks

Hi Rachel,
Apparently the use of castoreum in products is minimal these days. I don’t have a list of the companies that do use it, but you can find a lot of interesting information at http://www.snopes.com/food/ingredient/castoreum.asp .
