Frogspawn and Tadpoles


Frogspawn

Tadpoles



Back in March when I first spotted the Heron eating frogs, I discovered the pond was oozing with frogspawn. A month later the pond was absolutely alive with tadpoles and still is, I can't help wondering what the garden is going to be like when they turn into frogs. I presume there will be an awful lot of hopping going on.

  6. Lovely pictures of the pond, there will be a lot of frogs in the summer :) I look forward to seing photos of them.

    At the school of my youngest child there is a pond and there were lots of frogpawn earlier in spring. Unfortunately much of it has been killed by the frosty nights of April.

    Have a wonderful weekend, Ann :)

  7. My oldest once put tadpoles into her fish tank. When they start sprouting legs, they turn into frogs quickly!
