Well I had thought they might have been a bit later this year with it
being such a cold winter but when I looked out of the window this
morning I could see the tell-tale ripples on the pond.
Went out and saw half a dozen or so frogs and one clump of spawn.
More frogs seemed to be arriving throughout the day and judging from
the noise coming from the pond now they're going to be partying
tonight!


No sign of spawn or frogs so far here in S Devon. Last year first frog
spotted on 16 January and spawn on 20 February.


Just noticed 5 clumps of spawn! They must have been very busy under cover
of the low cloud that was blanketing us during Thursday and Friday.
