End time is approximate, let's take our time to enjoy the sounds of this rare toad, and views of Lomma bay from the shoreline.
Please change your rsvp as soon as possible when you have decided to no longer attend.
In Malmö there are two thriving locations with this otherwise rare species. May is the time for the European green toad to mate. We will keep our ears out for their calls. On this event we will meet outside Malmö central station, bike to Oljehamnen, get off our bikes at a place called Paddeborg, a pond where these toads are supposed to hang out, and go for a walkabout, enjoying their song. Perhaps even catch a glimpse of them. When we are satisfied we will go for a walk along the waterfront, enjoying the views of Lomma bay. Or the other way around, depending on the toads. After sunset we will hop on to our bikes again and head back to Malmö central station.
What to bring:
- a bike
- water for the bike rides
- dress according to weather
Getting there:
By bike: Bring your bike on the train or yellow bus to Malmö and bike to the north side of the central station, close to Coop grocery store, unless you already live in Malmö or its vicinity.
By public transportation: Bikes are allowed to bring on trains and yellow buses, talk to the train staff or bus driver. Catch any of those to central station.
By car: Bring your bike on your car, find a parking lot at a suitable spot in Malmö and bring along your bike to the meeting point.
