Well spring has sprung...
I'm very happy to report that at least two of the larger frogs, in my little garden survived the winter, I saw them swimming around yesterday and today there is loads of frog spawn in my pond.
I am very very excited as this is the first year it has happened!!
For the past 6 years I have dutifully brought a little from the little pond up at my allotment and popped it in here...
Yesterday I covered the allotment pond, so the spawn would be protected from any late frost and from being eaten..
I do love frogs... and they do a fantastic job munching all those slugs...
Talking of slug munchers...
more good news the Hedgehogs have survived the winter too!!
I saw two last night...
This big chap
and a much smaller one too.
Isn't nature just grand...
