. . . hope we get some spawn this year - didn't have any at all last year & no frogs seen or heard last year either :'(.
Once the frogs arrive, Sring has definitely Sprung!!

I noticed that they are starting to gather. Saw 7 humungous toads in the pond yesterday. (before the pond froze over ;) )
-
Is that a bit early? it would be for us anyway in the north midlands, are you milder down there?
-
No spawn yet but they are "singing" in the night and there is a bit of movement in the pond

Being deaf and having very good double glazing I haven't heard a thing :(, but this morning found two large splodges of spawn in my pond. Maybe this year I'll get some tadpoles - the fish ate all the spawn last year.

Hi.
Not sure when our frog spawn arrived but it wasn't there when we went on holiday on Feb 4 but was plenty there when we got back, Feb 12. Shame we missed the shenanigans. I think this is earlier than last year.
-
None here yet, but I do hear the odd little croak :)
-
I will go and get some petrol and see it there are any frogs splatted on the road. There is a crossing point just by our local petrol station. It has been very wet this year so hopefully they will have made it across ok.

When I go to lottie tomorrow I'll have to check wether the 'show' has started.. ;)
I did notice other day that there was some movement in water but no spawn then.
I would be bit supprised tough..it is still cold and If it would be me I would definately keep my legs crossed..hrr..bit too fresh for that :-X
-
ive got a dozen mated pairs but no spawn as yet but it wont be long and there are loads of single frogsstill to get together so im hoping for spawn in the next week or so.

Finally found my first 2 lots of frogspawn today in my wildlife pond (an upside down sand pit) about a week and half later than last year.
