    Well my frogs are certainly making up for lost time aren't they? :-D

    The whole pond is alive with them and my garden sounds as though it has an outboard motor it in!! Don't you just love springtime? :D

    That is just wonderful, Eileen! No sign of froggies here yet.
    What a thrill that must be.--seeing all those little guys and HEARING them! I really like hearing frogs, I don't expect froggies here until mid-april - early may, but things have been so unusual here of late, one never knows.

    Great posting, if makes me feel spring-like. :)

    That is a really cool picture. Should be one huge mass of gelatenous frog eggs in no time. Hopefully they won't ever do it and not leave anywhere for the babies to swim.

    Glenda that was just one tiny part of my pond. The whole 6' x 6' was covered in writhing frogs all intent on making babies!! :eek:

    I love to hear the croaking frogs at our lake.
    It's a sure sign that spring has arrived!
    Try as I might, I can not get them to pose for photos :D
