The weather as you know has been a bit rubbish lately with not too much of the hot summer as first predicted. There are sunny days and also a LOT of rain. I first noticed my little exodus from the pond on such a day. As the rain absolutely poured down suddenly out from the pond hopped one then two, then three, then four, five, six frogs all making a break across the lawn. They all moved in unison all the way over the lawn to the borders and beyond sight.
Yesterday the rain poured down with a real torrent in the afternoon and suddenly one, two three four frogs hopped out of the pond until sixteen were visable hopping their way across the lawn. It is a wonderful sight to see and I am sure that they are thinking FOOD. Obviously when it is wet the slugs and snails come out in droves and it is easy picking for the frogs. At least that is what I think. Anyone else have any other ideas about it.
