Harvey woke up nice and early this morning (6:30am) and when we came down we thought we'd check on the pond.... (last night I put some tarpoling over the pond as I wasn't sure if there might be a frost and it would kill of the frogspawn... thought we should take that off this morning seeing as it was raining). When we opened the door there was a very loud noise... A frog corus I guess!!! Gently lifted the tarpoling and there were lots of frogs doing their thing!!!! WOW!!!

Harvey was very, very excited... so am I!! Kept checking on them all morning and they were still at it at 10am! Keeva woke up at 11am... Harvey's friend Sam and his brother Toby came round especially to see the frogs.... So, out we went... noise all stopped, lifted covering and all frogs gone under!!! Blooming typical huh!?

Keeva's named one squibbles and has picked him up... suprisingly unjumpy, but very slimey!

Kept and eye on them all day... more spawn appeared and frogs kept popping up all over the place.... think there are at least 16 frogs in there!
