Yellow Salamander

Hello everyone, 

Today while I was cleaning out my little pond on the back side of the house. I found a yellow salamander hiding. I grabbed him and placed him in a safe place with water until I got done cleaning the pond, then I placed him back by the pond with all the very wet leaves and moss so it can go back to the pond if it wants. 

I have the little brown ones all over the yard under leaf litter and rocks here and there, just everywhere, but this is the only yellow one I have seen. 

Now two years ago, while removing a plant near the pond I found an orange salamander. Did not take a pic did not even think of it back then. But that thing was beautiful. 

Yellow Salamander

Love and Prayers,
