Eastern Red-Backed Salamander

[norfolknaturalist]

Eastern Red-backed Salamander (Plethodon cinereus) on the Lynn Valley Trail, a few weeks ago. These are the most common woodland Salamanders of the Great Lakes region. Despite their tiny, weak-looking limbs they occasionally climb into trees and shrubs to forage, which usually happens during rainy nights. Their diet is made up of many small invertebrates, usually those found within leaf litter or under logs. They are surprisingly fast when exposed, as I found out while trying to take good pictures of them. Unlike most amphibians which require a body of water in which to reproduce, the Red-backed Salamander lays eggs in an underground chamber or within a rotting log or stump. . . . . . . . #nature #ontario #easternredbackedsalamander #redbackedsalamander #plethodon #plethodoncinereus #amphibiansofontario #salamander #salamandersofinstagram #ontariowildlifephotography #lynnvalleytrail #norfolkwild #blognorfolk #norfolkcountyontario #simcoeontario #cwfphotoclub #canadiananimals #salamanderphotography #herpsofig (at Lynn Valley Walking Trail) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHFbxDSghL9/?igshid=1kwgm1zrndt8q

Going out late at night after it rains is my favorite. I saw at least 4 different species of salamanders just in one patch of my yard. I love these mountains. #salamanders #duskysalamander #yonahlosseesalamander #redbackedsalamander #southerngreycheekedsalamander #desmognathus #plethodon #herping #nature #photography #ncmountains #grandfathermountain https://www.instagram.com/p/B0GYSiEB6ba/?igshid=1lc7hunie2x5s

🦎🦎 #wildlifewednesday 🦎🦎 Red Backed Salamander... classified as “least concern” for once. We found two of these critters while working through some spring clean ups in North York just the other day. What joy! They are mainly terrestrial and like living low to the ground, under rocks, logs and other debris. Be mindful of them while working through your gardens this spring. They are just beginning to come up from hibernation. Don’t cultivate. It isn’t necessary. And leave some wet leaf litter behind for them to burrow into. They’re still sleepy... . . . .
