I wish I could take you all along with me to this beautiful lake.<br /><br />Elizabeth, I did look at internet photos of salamander egg masses, and I do believe that's what we found -- but one from which the baby salamanders had all hatched. Thanks for the suggestion.Jacqueline Donnellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13390548854179921303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2662118368553266438.post-75906247375106647742011-07-06T15:27:43.211-04:002011-07-06T15:27:43.211-04:00Sounds like a lovely ramble to me!Sounds like a lovely ramble to me!Carolyn Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03179182853082650546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2662118368553266438.post-60464902047022548832011-07-06T11:08:21.482-04:002011-07-06T11:08:21.482-04:00While it is too bad that you didn't see what y...While it is too bad that you didn't see what you had come to see, I'm glad that you had such a wonderful day, anyways. There's nothing better than to be out in the wilderness with people who enjoy it as much as you do.

If you google "spotted salamander eggs", there are a bunch of pictures that look similar to your jelly, although they all have baby salamanders inside their green blobs.... It's a possibility, though!<br /><br />Your trips to bogs are so interesting.
