Baby Newt

love these little fellas :O)

They leave the pond for the adults in summer, to avoid being eaten. Sensible!

very sensible! :O)

We have them in our pond no frogs though, don't know how they survive with all the fish in there.

You must have frogs, surely, Simbad. I do but don't see them that often, except if it rains hard.

Only ever seen one,well heard him first lol, early spring one year calling for a mate at the edge of the pond , never had frog spawn, there are loads of fish though we started off with 10 must be 13 years ago now and I'd hate to guess how many are in there now and two of the quite distinctly coloured ones are still going strong.

This takes me back to being a kid Siris. The local common, a pond and a fishing net.

I think I am in my second childhood!
