Horrible Winter-Spring

 The pond: late 2011

 Egg laying female Smooth Newt amongst algae and frog and toad tadpoles from spawn introduced and toads that visited earlier.

Sorry for no recent posts! The weather is getting more mild but there is supposed to be another frost next week. No newt activity so far although newt larvae are still in the pond. Lots of cyclops too starting to appear and crocus and daffodils are blooming. Hopefully I will be able to go herping next weekend at Berengrave NR. Also I hope to get a new liner for the pond to make it bigger.
