February 7, 2021- south side

34 dead newts (0 juveniles), 0 live newts.
February 7th, 2021 (Sunday) 3:50-5:15pm. I went late in hopes of most people being home watching the Superbowl, which seems to have worked.
Weather: Partly cloudy, high 60s. No rain for days prior.
Other roadkill: 1 large millipede. One little piece of the skunk left.
Rainfall: MTD 0.46in, YTD 9.43in (per http://www.weathercat.net/wxraindetail.php?year=2021)
Traffic: 27 motor vehicles, 7 parked vehicles, 8 bicycles, 1 walker.
Midpen study: Pit traps were emptied before I arrived and there were no roadkill newts in their road sections.

Mostly dried-out wafers, but a decent number of semi-fresh ones that looked like they were killed in the past 24-48 hours (to my mild surprise since it's been quite dry and warm).
