Early on wet mornings I walk the trails to photograph red efts in a small study I'm doing surveying their spots. But every now and then I can't help taking a minute to snap a dramatic picture of their march through the leaf litter.

The greenish-brown larvae remain in the water for several months before emerging as efts, orange-red with a double row of black-ringed vermilion spots. The efts spend two or three years on land, hibernating in winter under leaves, and then return permanently to the water, becoming olive green and developing a broad swimming tail. Newts are classified in the phylum Chordata, subphylum Vertebrata, class Amphibia, order Urodela, family Salamandridae.The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition Copyright 2004, Columbia University Press.
