This year we have no toad spawn in the pond but loads of frog spawn. This
is unusual for us and the opposite of all previous years. I have no idea
which frogs they are but some are pretty big - probably 8" long if stretched
out. They have stripey legs, cross banded stripes, rather than vertical and
silvery chests. To me their back feet seem very large but perhaps that's
just my ignorance. I wonder if anyone knows what we have and why we have so
many of them suddenly! Where have our toads gone, I wonder!
