    Super shots of your amphibian friends Words.
    But I should warn you that your mating frogs are getting around – I found the very same frogs mating in our pond last night too…

    Beautiful photo TBR but…

    Thanks (I think?) irczas. I was actually comparing the frogs (colouration etc… they look identical!) rather than the composition of the photo to be honest but cheers anyway.

    I suppose you don't want to know that we had a windchill of -12c this morning, and there's still deep ribbons of snow over here :smurf:

    But I'm glad spring has found the South Downs. I wonder if Surrey has thawed out yet :right:

    Adele, that sounds cold, but better than south of England drizzle :smurf:

    Irczas, the frogs are crazy this time of year, but good to see them after the long winter.

    Darko, spring has nearly arrived. More rain today, but it's a little warmer. It's good to see the pond active again.
