Default Frogs

Last night the 1st frog finally sang from the lily pond. Now we wait to see
who joins him.... or do I wait till the neighbor complains? eg Most
likely if more than one I'll go out and catch them. I'm really hoping
though the goldfish will make them move on.

It really surprised me when I took a bunch of frogs to the D.pond last year
and one goldfish actually tried to eat one of them. The goldfish wasn't
much bigger than the frog (who did manage to get away will all limbs
attached). So I'm hoping my goldfish that are out there will harass the
frogs to move to fishless areas, such as my short stock tank at the other
end of the house. I'll be sitting up a kiddy pool this week also. ~ jan
