I've got three ponds too and the other day I saw this frog sitting on a stone. I'm pleased as I think it's one from a batch of spawn I acquired, though I shouldn't have, last year. Anyway a result for my 'wildlife' garden. The pools all have fish to eliminate the mosquitoes.

I'm also pleased with my propagation of Sea Kale from root cuttings. Little purple shoots appearing. These will recolonise the shore at Kimmeridge Bay in due course where they used to grow.
