=============
Yes. Ignore the cross-posters and anonymous posters. Last night we heard
the first frog of the season. He already moved into the new little 150
gallon pond.

Oh, I'm jealous! I bought two tadpoles last year (I was warned that frogs
are territorial and that one would kick the other out) but never did hear
any froggie noises so I'm not sure either one stayed. Maybe I'll be
luckier this year!

==============================
If you live in a town you may not be. I live out in the country so newts,
frogs and toads come on their own. The plant pools behind my house act as
pollywog nurseries ever summer, cranking out thousands of new little
froglets and toadlets.

I built my in-ground pond to attract wildlife. I put
minnows in there but they don't disturb anything.
Two years ago I got toads - tons & tons of toad
tadpoles! Then last year I got small green frogs. One
(at least) lived in the pond throughout what we
laughingly call winter here in southcentral TX, so
I'm expecting bunches of frog tadpoles.

I've been reading rec.ponds via Google since
AOL dropped them.
Works well for me.

Google will throw up all sorts of ads along the right
sides that are kind of related to the subject.
On this topic are two ads for frog sculptures.

But the best one is
'new and USED poison arrow frogs'

I suspect, as the season goes on, rec.ponds could
hold a sale on used bullfrogs. I'd like to volunteer
Her Royal Highness The Lady Bullfrog, but I doubt
she'd cooperate.

What's the going rate for carcasses? I always have a few that get caught in
the freeze.

YES! I believe they do. I have yet to see even eggs survive the ponds with
koi, no less the taddies. The pools with goldfish are always full of tads.

I have a friend who claims his ate toad tadpoles and died. Mine
share the pond with lots of them every spring and are growing well.
If they are eating any I don't miss them.

Hal

Unfortunatley, the drivel has nothing to do with not talking about
ponding, it is just some internet white noise that you have to filter
out.
See, I can talk about ponding, I mentioned 'filter.'
