    So this thread is basically froggy porn then!
    I've caught mine at it a few times, but no spawn yet.

        We've got 7 in the pond, they're quite noisy at night! ;) no spawn yet but the way they're going, that's only a matter of time!

          I have a few Frogs but tons of frogspawn which is a couple of weeks old & the little tads have been hatching these last few days.. :SUNsmile: They are not the best pics because they are from my phone so I can't cut out the reflection, but you can see the hatchlings ok..

                  I couldn't believe my eyes today, a walk along the canal and I had to watch where I stepped, it was like a Roman orgy! :-)

                    5 frogs in a submerged pot, still looking amorous, with one froggie voyeur on the side. Saw two clumps of spawn attached to said pot, so their actions haven't all been in vain;)

                        Still not seen nor heard any frogs, so I assume the spawn in the pond must be from just one or two pairs who had their froggie fun and then hopped away. Anyway I'm glad to see that they started to hatch in the past couple of days. This year I'm not going to put any anti-blanket weed chemicals in the pond, and hope the tadpoles survive to leave the pond rather than disappearing as I described in post no 14.
