percise times depend on the local weather and exactly where you a located, but most species of eastern mole salamanders, including the eastern tiger, blue-spotted and yellow spotted species begin middle of march to early april and generally only move from dusk to dawn. I don't believe that Virginia has much of a tiger salamander population, and even in states like NY, where i'm from, and PA, it is quite rare to find tigers, even during mating season. And you should definatly check with your state DEC or wildlife commission proior to collecting any species from the wild, espically a species as endangered as the eastern tiger, since in NY the DEC actually watches tiger breeding pools for unlicensed collectors and issues Fines up to $500.00 per illegal salamander collected. so it is in your best interest to check your local laws before thinking of catching wild specimens, if that is what you are considering doing.
if you just want to watch the migration, then enjoy, but don't disturb.
