Our pond, which went in last Easter, has played host to a number of frogs over the year and I was pleading that they would choose our pond to be the home of their young in the spring. To be honest I've been fretting that we wouldn't find any frogspawn at all. It's obviously selfish because if the habitat isn't right for the wildlife it's not going to end happily ever after anyway.
The fussing over the spawn is daily and since the above shot was taken about a minute after I was made aware of the new arrival. Since then the tiny black dots have grown, some have tails. It's very exciting.
Did I mention we have a second pond? NO?! Oh well I can hand on heart say I had virtually nothing to do with it but will be haunting it's banks and bringing you more on that as and when news breaks.
Like Kezzie, I hope to blog every day for the time being, especially as each day is essentially the same as any other. The weekend for me is the time we are 'out' and only come home for food or to drop off stuff, so this will be challenging... And alarmingly I'm running out of garden jobs to tend.
We've finally had a couple of requests from our older friends for items from the supermarket so wish us luck in picking up supplies.
Take care,
Sophie
