| Re: disappearing tadpoles
Thanks - that was really interesting, there is so much for me to learn! I do have a range of frog ages / sizes - though I haven't seen some of the smaller ones recently - not sure if that's because I just haven't seen them or because of a neighbour's active cat. We are going to buy a cat scarer as we are convinced know some of the frogs disappear in that direction... And I used to love cats.
I haven't seen a GDB - but presumably that would also enjoy the efts as well. I think you are right about them being water lice - there are a huge amount of them. we don't have boatmen but there are a lot of pond skaters.
I have also removed some of the large plants around the smaller pond to see if more light helps next year. |
