All over Britain frogs started spawning on 25th February, which is about a month earlier than they did. A week later we had a moderate frost and my tiny pond froze half an inch thick: -- Sue ] |

Out back We have a Stock Tank (man made pond) that is seasonal. When the Monsoon starts the way we can tell we've had 1/2" or more of Rain is the Frogs come out of the Mud and Crook all night for 3 or 4 Nights, eat make eggs and disappear for another year.

Who needs the national grid? http://www.petersparrots.com http://www.insanevideoclips.com http://www.petersphotos.com After Christmas vacation, an elementary school teacher was asking her students how they celebrated Christmas. When she got to Sammy, whose father ran a local toy store, she said, "Sammy, since you're Jewish, I guess your family didn't celebrate Christmas." Sammy replied, "Oh yes, we did. We all held hands and danced around the cash register singing, 'What A Friend We Have In Jesus.' |

Well in our little cute pond, there is no spawn yet, and the weather is seriously out of pattern, 14c one day, -4c overnight the next? In the first photo, is the spawn actually frozen?!

The spawn that froze looks wrinkled and very strange (no pics because it's blowing a gale and poor light) but that's just the part that's on the surface. How's your green Rod's Outhouse frog? When will you know whether its croaking attracted a partner? -- Sue ] |
