Our first frog spawn today in Leeds

This March 2nd, compared with:

We still have no frog spawn, but then the pond was frozen till last week
which gave them a bit of a handicap.

Otoh the crocuses, wallflowers and rosemary are later than they were
last year - crocuses and wallflowers by a couple of weeks, and the
rosemary still isn't in flower.

On the other hand rosemary and crocuses have been flowering for some time,
but they're on the sheltered South facing side of the house.
