Winter Wren
At the Bird Banding Lab's Fall Migration Station, Winter Wrens are one of the smallest species they band. They have the smallest tail measurement at the station, between 26-36 millimeters!

Larval Two-Lined Salamander
This is a newly hatched two-lined salamander (Eurycea bislineata). Two-lined salamanders are a stream-adapted species, which means that the larvae are fully aquatic and live in streams.

USGS Scientist retrieving seawater from a Niskin bottleUSGS Scientist, Alexis Weinnig, working aboard the NOAA ship Okeanos Explorer to sample seawater with a niskin water bottle mounted on the back of the remotely operated vehicle (ROV). The water from the niskin bottles is filtered for eDNA to detect biological life in the water column.

Juvenile Northern Dusky Salamander
Northern dusky salamanders (Desmognathus fuscus) are a species of stream-adapted salamander found throughout the northeastern US. The larvae are aquatic and live in streams, while the adults live on streambanks. This individual is a juvenile, and it has only recently lost its gills and left the water.
