Our frogs who have hibernated are active again but we don't get the same sort of spawn here since we have European rather than British frogs. Ours seem to lay single eggs all the year round and we always have tadpoles at different stages of development.
That's interesting I did not know that. I wonder why it changes.
@CeliaVL I have only been there once, and I should think it is beautiful and wildlife rich. Unfortunately we went on a coach tour and they dragged us round all the tourist hot spots at high speed, some of which were good, but I did not get to see any of the things I wanted much at all. It was my first coach tour and it will be my last.
When I was young I played with the pollywogs and tried to find where the frogs and toads were hiding. The best spots were under the overgrown grass edges of the pond. I would only catch them to watch them swim away. If you were patient and listened you could usually tell where they were hiding.
Life finds a way, my ponds are completely frozen, right to the bottom and there will be life there come the spring.
I love the seasonal cycles, they are only there because the earth does not stand up , but what wonders follow from that. And even though we are mortal, how great to be an animal who gets to watch them unfold more than once.

Posted by KateOahuI saw some pretty flowers on a walk today. I’d never seen a white Hibiscus before. And I do not know what the pink flowers are.
