yes grindle my neighbors nephew is really into wildlife and has a big pond. He kindly gave me some spawn a few years ago for my old pond but they only got to tadpoles before disappearing. I asked my neighbour a few weeks ago about some but haven't heard anything yet. In my last house I found several frogs hopping about in the garden and I didnt even have a pond !

It's only small ladybird, it's one of those pre-formed black plastic ones, I've never measured it, must check that out. It usually has about 6 frogs in & lots of tadpoles but not all the tadpoles make it to adulthood, some get eaten by the birds, hedgehogs & local cats!

Still lots of tadpoles in it & 3 frogs sunbathing yesterday.
