Frogspawn Day
Category: Miscellaneous | Posted: Wed Feb 14, 2007 9:00 am I wandered out the back as usual this morning, and see that there's a dollop of frogspawn in the pond. I have heard a couple of frogs in the evening croaking away, and have seen one occasionally bobbing up out of the pondweed. As there are no fish in the pond now, it looks like they'll have the place to themselves for a while. I believe the local heron will be a problem here. I'm sure he's taken the few larger fish I had. The smaller ones died from fungul growth, but none of the larger ones have been seen for weeks. Maybe he got them some time ago. I shall have to think very carefully about whether to stock up again, or just leave it as a wildlife pond otherwise it could get expensive, not to mention irritating. Maybe I'll introduce a good collection of flowering border plants instead. This blog entry has been viewed 164 times

No frogspawn in evidence here yet Pete but our frogs usually lay later than yours down south. I much prefer a wildlife pond in my garden as there is no hassle attached to it and it is so interesting to see what insects and amphibians move in.
If I had room for a pond, it would be a wildlife pond. Too many stray cats for fish.
