It is when there is light on it. But at night, most animals are color blind and the red is seen as black. Great camouflage for them then.
I think it is really easy to see.
Tennessee has a very rich amphibian diversity. We have 56 species of salamander and 21 frog species.
Thanks. Wow! Three in one night that's amazing. We don't see anything like this in San Diego where I live.
