Watchable Wildlife: Frogs at Tillman Rd. WMA
The croak, ribbit and peep of frogs are unmistakable signs that spring is here. At Tillman Road Wildlife Management Area, you can walk through the marsh during the spring and summer, and seven different species of frogs will serenade you.
Two hiking trails and a self-guided nature loop encircle the wetlands and grassy fields. The area, in the town of Clarence, 8 miles east of Buffalo, also includes a deciduous swamp and hardwood forest and is home to muskrats, beaver, mink, deer, grebes, wading birds, herons and ducks. A boardwalk with a viewing platform is located at the Bergtold Road entrance.
The property, totaling 230 acres, is a prime spot for wildlife watching, fishing and hiking. The interpretive trail and viewing platform are accessible to persons with disabilities. For more watchable wildlife opportunities, visit the New York Watchable Wildlife webpage.
