Pond Project #2 - 22/6/2013

The recent warm weather means

the water level has dropped in the pond.

The duck weed seems to be taking over

but I'll hang on a bit before clearing it back.

The toad tadpoles are still active and

and now have started to get their limbs.

The frog tadpoles have all metamorphosed

and on Friday evening just gone we watched

several them leave the pond for the first time.
