Vernal Pool

#Tuesday

From U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Pacific Southwest Region:

Can you believe this is a vernal pool? It looks more like a lake after the winter rain we had this year! 

Seasonal wetlands, like this vernal pool, provide great habitat for birds, toads, frogs and many threatened and endangered species <3.
