My own back garden

Common frog (Rana temporaria)

The first frogs appeared in the pond in my garden a few days ago and yesterday the first spawn appeared (Sunday), and today there's more. 

You can submit your frogspawn records to: http://www.pondconservation.org.uk/bigponddip/BigSpawncount/BigSpawnCountonlinerecordingform.htm

Common frogs (Rana temporaria)

The photograph above is of 3 frogs mating, the female in the middle: it has been known for females to drown during mating.
