I had to do some tidying today. Large leafless dead branches had fallen from the beech tree in strong winds and one or two had landed across the pond.
I lifted them free and dragged them down to the Yard, leaving them by the rotting tree stumps as added protection for any frogs around there. I peered closely for a minute but nothing moved. No froglets today then…
Except one. On my way back to the house I passed my new frog staircase and a movement caught my eye. A single froglet, trying to blend in.
