    I am so jealous of you all! I'm still waiting for frogs to take up residence in my pond which is now nearly 2 years old.

    A Bullfrog could swallow a Natterjack and not touch the sides, they are so much bigger. :(

    Standing room only tonight. Shame that as soon as they see me they dive under and only a few brave (or desparate) souls remain. I love the frog chorus.
