Pondlife

Loads of tadpoles this year, even though Mr and Mrs Mallard keep coming for supper. They are starting to take on a more froglike shape and the fact they are starting to come up for air suggests that they are starting to develop lungs.


I've also been watching electric blue damsel flies laying eggs in the pond this afternoon and there is a rather interesting looking nymph sunning itself on the pond grass. Hope there are lots of frogs soon!
