Newts and things

Enjoy your tea and the lovely evening :o)

Nice to get something early instead of waiting though,we,ve had a beautiful week here but its cooling down now,shame if its bad for people who,ve been at work and looking forwards to weekend, so fingers xx we get warm again tomorrow,hope carpet fitting goes ok..........

Lovely to see the newt and frogs. Hope the carpet fitting goes well. Enjoy your meal.

I have had a wildlife pond for over two years now. No sign of newts though. Extremely jealous.

Great things ponds aren't they? I have newts too and lots of frogs! Its clouding over here (Lincs) forecast rain for tomorrow we could do with some though.

Lovely to see the newts, but you need to have a serious word with those lazy frogs.

I,ve frogs galore in both ponds but have never had any newts,your right Sk we do need a drop of rain,I ve had to refill my waterbutts by hosepipe.........

The frogs look to be hiding.....maybe they are getting picked on by the newts!! LOL.
Enjoy your tea in the garden Gail.

Thanks Blodyn. x

Managed to get the old carpet up Lincslass, I haven't stopped sneezing, dust everywhere.

Thanks Gee, not coming to help then .... : )

Treesandthi.. If you lived nearer, you could have a couple of ours, I think that we'll be having babys.

Sewingkilla, It's very cloudy here today (Sat) just loading the old, old, old, carpet into the car.

Toto, the next time i see them together, I'll tell them that you'll be coming to have a word about there lax behavour. x

You could be right Gilli, but they're bigger that the newts, they wern't there this morning, so they maybe doing there job. x

Great to see your newts Daff ! We have frogs and toads galore but no newts so far ! Maybe one day.... Great photos !

Thank you Bonkersbon, I hope that you do get some newts, You could put a notice in a shop window asking if anyone has any newts that would like a good home. It can take from 2 to 5 years to get them into your pond.
You can't take them from the wild, but you can be given them.

Oh thanks Gail ...our pond only 1 year old so will give it more time and see what happens next year ! : )

I really like the way you have photographed the frogs peeking out from under the stone...

Thank you Skippy, I have a new camera ... well ... about 6 months old, I take a picture of anything that moves, or is still for that matter. : )

Great picture of skiving frogs!

Thanks Weeding, they are both there every day, just surveying their world. : )

I saw my first newt today. Really happy. I have waited two years.

Lovely pics. We have a pond but it is full of very fat fish so they would probably dicourage newts. We had a frog once which was bright green. We were all excited but it disappeared so don't know what happened to it so will have to content myself with looking at yours from time to time? please!

Treesandthi, I'm so pleased for you, you'll have a few more before too long. x

I think the fish must have eaten any eggs that the newts or frogs have laid, but that's part of nature. .... xxx
