We used to have frogs, but then the local heron decided that he
wanted a change from fish. Haven't had any for about four years now
(though I'm still optimistic they'll return). We do, however, have
at least two common newts.


I'm not sure the newts are good news for frogs. Newts feed on
tadpoles.



Good point, Kay, I'd forgotten that - and a plague of dragonflies wouldn't
help the situation, either. But I've definitely seen the heron taking
frogs...
