I know they put tunnels under big roads like motorways etc so frogs and other critters can safely 'cross' the road, but . . . . . . . . . . . in the middle of nowhere???????

WotEver Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Last night appeared to be Frog Orgy Night. Our garden pond had at least 9 frog pairs giving each other piggy-backs accompanied by much low croaking. This morning we have large quantities of tapioca in clumps all over the pond.

matty40s Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 There were a couple of frogs giving it some as I ascended Barrow Deep yesterday, one hell of an up and down experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wondering why we hadn't seen any in our pond -- they're all in yours! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol We had some workmen round last year and one of them said "Frogs! I love frogs!" and before I could warn him he leaned on the edge of the pond to take a closer look, immediately followed by "Ow! Ouch! You've got an electric fence!" I replied "Yes, I know" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One sad day a few years back we returned to an almost empty pond and those few fish that remained were paranoid. Yes really, anyone who's not seen it wouldn't believe it. A heron had come a-visiting. The little sod won't do it again, nor will any neighbourhood cats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Nibble Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 I was once shouted at for my cruelty when I picked up a frog and tossed it in the canal. They thought it would drown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the first time this year that frogs have been heard here. I wonder if is a coincidence that it was the same night as in the U.K., and perhaps linked to a phase of the moon?

Irob Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 I find this topic on frogs quite rivet riveting. I think i,ll jump to the next topic, its about a kangeroot. You know, the scotsman who got stuck in the lavatory ! Ha, the oldies are best. Like i went into the chinese restaurant and asked the waiter if he had chicken feet. He said no, he was just wearing new shoes ! Bum bum ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
