One of the things I hate most about Winter is the fact that I don’t get to see the little faces of my allotment frogs staring at me whilst I’m busy gardening, so you can imagine my joy when I noticed 4 frog heads popping out of the water on Tuesday!
The pond needs a clean so badly but part of me is still hoping for some frog spawn to appear. Every time I pop up the allotment I desperately check for frog spawn but haven’t seen any yet, there’s still time though right?! The oxygenating plant I have floating in the water has spread immensely and it needs chopping back, the same can be said for the water forget me not that is covering half the pond now. It blooms so beautifully though and the frogs enjoy it, none the less the pond needs tidying and I need to do it pronto just in case any frogs think its time to starting laying eggs. It would make my day to have tadpoles in my pond but there’s always next year…
