Grass Snake Eggs

Nope. They's deffo tadpoles though the ones that haven't hatched don't
seem to be getting anywhere. I also have newts (so know the
difference) - round here they have a late summer suicidal streak. I
catch them running across the lawn, rescue them from the cat and
return them to the pond. Two minutes later and they're running across
the lawn again.
This time of year they don't live in ponds.
If left alone, they run around to the front of the
house and down the road where they jump into a gully and are
(presumably) never seen again.
Soon, they'll be crawling under things as a nice damp place that
attracts creepy-crawly treats, and where they'll spend the winter.
Usually, they'll return to the same pond in the spring to spawn.
