      <image:title>AAH Sanctuary Species-Owls - Eastern Screech Owl (Megascops asio)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Eastern Screech Owls are smaller woodland owls that nest in tree cavities in woods.  They have small, stocky bodies, yellow-green irises, and pronounced ear tufts.  They may be gray or rufous (brownish red) in our area.  Their call is a high pitched whinny, and they make a lot of other sounds too, including screeches.  They don’t require as large an area as Barred Owls do, just a suitable tree cavity, and a tree density of at least 20 per acre.  They tolerate humans.  They roost in tree cavities, nest boxes, or evergreens—especially Red Cedars.  Photo: Randy Streufert Click for their voice and more information</image:caption>

      <image:title>AAH Sanctuary Species-Owls - Barred Owl (Strix varia)</image:title>
      <image:caption>The most common owl in our area, the Barred Owl may be identified by its round head lacking ear tufts, brown eyes, and horizontal barring on its throat.  The Barred Owl’s haunting, distinctive call, “Who cooks for you? Who cooks for you all?” may be heard at dawn or dusk—or even late in the night.  You may hear wild cackling or caterwauling, especially during courting season. Owls are most vocal when males and females are pairing up before nesting begins in very early spring, and again in fall when young are dispersing to new territories Strongly territorial homebodies, who return to the same area year after year, even generation after generation, and reuse the same nest.  Their territories are large — 200-700 acres — in deep forests, including swamps and riparian areas as well as upland forests.</image:caption>

      <image:title>AAH Sanctuary Species-Owls - Great Horned Owl (Bubo virginianus)</image:title>
      <image:caption>This large, powerful, and long-lived owl is adapted to habitats across nearly the entire North American continent, and much of South America, including suburbs, deserts, forests, and grasslands.  It may be recognized by its ear tufts, a white bib, and enormous yellow eyes. (Those ear tufts are called plumicorns, and scientists do not really know what they're for.) Great Horned Owls advertise their territories with deep, soft hoots with a stuttering rhythm: hoo-h’HOO-hoo-hoo. Great Horned Owls prefer open and secondary growth woodlands that include some open habitat, such as fields or wetlands.  They hunt from perches overlooking open areas.  Unlike the other two owl species, Great Horned Owls prefer fragmented landscapes, including more edges between woods and open areas.  This type of</image:caption>

      <image:title>AAH Sanctuary Species-Owls - Barn Owl (Tyto alba)</image:title>
      <image:caption>This medium sized owl has a heart-shaped facial ruff and lacks ear-tufts.  It prefers open habitats and flies over them to locate prey by sight or hearing (Barn Owls’ ability to locate prey by sound is better than any animals tested).  It may also hunt from perches, as the woodland owls do.  It mostly feeds on rodents, voles being its primary prey. Barn Owls nest in a wide variety of cavities, natural and human-made: trees, cliffs, caves, riverbanks, church steeples, barn lofts, haystacks, and nest boxes. Its breeding numbers seem limited by the availability of nest cavities proximate to adequate densities of small mammals.

Adults can forage over a half mile on humid nights. They often return  to the same daytime hiding place under logs, rocks and leaves. They breed from Spring to early Summer when the females attach long strips of several thousand eggs to pond vegetation long, shrill trill is unmistakable. Learn more about ID, range and their voices.

      <image:title>AAH Sanctuary Species-Frogs-Toads - Wood Frog</image:title>
      <image:caption>Wood Frogs (Lithobates sylvaticus)  After early Spring rains dozens of Wood Frogs will gather in vernal pools for mating, making loud quacking calls.  This lasts for one or two weeks depending on the weather. After laying eggs, they disperse to moist wooded areas. Wood frogs produce cryoprotectants in their blood, a type of antifreeze  that allows them to withstand sub-freezing temperatures. Locally common but destruction of vernal pools affects them in developed areas. Learn more about ID, range and their voices</image:caption>

March through June they attach their eggs to the stems of pond plants. Learn more about ID, range and their voices. Photo by John White</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Green Tree Frogs (Hyla cinerea) are bright green frogs that breed in still ponds (even fish ponds) and marshes, attaching their eggs to vegetation. Juveniles often stay in dense vegetation around pond margins, eventually migrating to in trees within 100 yards of their breeding place. Learn more about ID, range, behavior and voices.

      <image:caption>Coastal Plains Leopard Frogs (Lithobates sphenocephalus utricularius) are large frogs (2 in up to 5 in.). You can recognize them by their large green to brown spots. They gather in large groups to breed in fish-free bodies of fresh water from April to June. Adults forage away from water in areas with protective vegetation.

      <image:caption>Eastern Spadefoot Toads (Scaphiopus holbrokii) like to bury themselves in sand or mud, coming out to feed after warm rains. They breed in ephemeral, fishless ponds and prefer areas with loose, sandy soils. Some people have allergic reactions to this toad’s skin, so be careful when handling.

      <image:caption>Panterophis alleghaniensis Central Ratsnakes are the most common snake seen in Virginia and may be found on the ground or in trees.  They may live in a variety of habitats including agricultural areas, forests, wooded lots, and forested wetlands. These large black snakes can reach 6 foot or more. Their bodies are more squarish than round.  Juveniles have a V-shaped eye/jaw stripe through the eyes and a pattern of black to dark-brown on top of a peppered black-and-white to gray body.   Their home range is around 600 meters diameter. They are often active after sunset. They eat small rodents, bird eggs, and occasionally birds.  They lay 5-19 eggs in hollow trees, compost piles, decomposing logs.  Photo: Bill Crisp</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Thamnophis sirtalis sirtalis ﻿Eastern Gartersnakes are identifiable by the 3 yellow stripes running the length of the body, one down the middle and one on each side. The top coloration varies from greenish, olive, brown, or black and the average length is 22 inches.  They are terrestrial and can be found in habitats including forests, grasslands, marshlands, and around bodies of water. They feed on insects, earthworms, slugs, amphibians and other small creatures found under logs and on plants. Eastern Gartersnakes give birth to live young in late summer.
