A couple years ago I heard that vernal pools are good for salamanders. So in my woods I dug a hole, 2 ft deep in the center, put a 10' x 13 ' liner, filled it with water, and now have salamander larvae.
A question of terminology- If I don't let it dry up in the summer, is it still a vernal pool, or should I call it a "woodland " pool?
