Frogs
When we moved to our present house there was a small (6ish X 8ish X 1.5 ft )
earth filled concrete pond in the garden. I removed the earth and found the concrete was cracked so lined the pond with sheet liner held in place using a mixture of grit, peat and cement to produce a tufa which extends to a few inches below the water level and now looks the same as the rocks bedded into it round the pond's edges. The problem - if one can call it that - is the number of frogs in the pond and on the fuchsia shaded ledges I left in the tufa - I counted ten this morning but I expect some were hiding beneath lily pads. I often see them climbing out to sunbathe for a while! With no worthwhile rain this April they seem to be forced to stay near the pond. "Problem"? Not really mine but the frogs must be starving for there's little natural food in the pond and I've seen them trying to catch damsel flies to no avail. What and how can I supply the frogs with a meal now and then? Lionel |
