Title: one of my polytunnel helpers
Post by: manicscousers on May 29, 2007, 16:25:56
every time I find a frog outside, I pop it in the poly..it seems to be working, the lettuce are being left alone  :)

isn't it nice to garden with wildlife?!?
for the past month or so I've had a frog living in my potatoes, he's very yellow compared to yours though, manics!
I also have a little toad that pops up from time to time, usually when I'm moving corrugated tins about.
next year I'll be sinking a bath in the wildlife corner to make a pond for them all ;D

What great guys these frogs are.  They pop up all over the place.

yes, he's little but there's plenty of slugs to help make him bigger..the taddies in the pond are just starting legs so, hopefully he'll have some competition..shame they can't eat snails  ???

there were three of them, all different sizes, the other two pictures didn't come out, we've got lots of tiny ones everywhere, I'm scared to walk around in case i squash them
this is 'the pond'
