Froglets and toadlets on the roadlets

Here's the latest update from Lisa Levinson on the toad migration in Upper Roxborough. She said we could post it here. If you're interested in helping you can email her at lisa@publiceyephilly.org: 

Hi Volunteers,
 
We've been "toadletting" for the past week or so. The main migration of toadlets from the Reservoir to the woods was in mid-June. We are just starting to see froglets crossing, first sightings in late June. They are bigger than the toadlets, twice the size and twice the speed!
 
On nights of heavy rain (6/17-20), we set up the barricades and counted hundreds of toadlets per night. Most traveled on Eva Street (near the Church), at the intersection of Port Royal & Hagy's Mill, and along Summit Street. Since then, we have not seen such numbers. Volunteers counted/moved approximately 100 toadlets across Summit Street per night between 10pm-12am. We estimate that thousands of toadlets crossed a couple weeks ago and hundreds continue to cross per night. Special thanks to the volunteers who helped!
 
Now we're observing toadlets (and now froglets) crossing late in the evening, 10pm-12am. There aren't many cars on Summit at this time, but we still see casualties. Without our help, we estimate that half die and half cross. Volunteers will be there on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, but we need help on other days. If you're available, meet at the intersection of Summit and Lare Street (near Ridge) between 9:30-10pm. Remember to wear light/reflective clothes and bring a flashlight and small dixie cup (great toad transporter). Please count the toads you cross and email the final count to me. We're not sure how long this will continue, perhaps another week or so.
 
Thanks so much for your continued support! We will assign nights to volunteers in the future to streamline this process. Here's a clip from a TV interview about the toadlet migration.
