I dug a little wildlife pond to attract the frogs, and it seems to have worked. I don't see them very often, but there were at least three lots of frogspawn this first year, so I am thinking that must be at least four frogs, maybe six.CJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14311693185700341580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6235841642149423068.post-75990186394491931742013-06-04T21:35:26.181+01:002013-06-04T21:35:26.181+01:00Thanks for visiting Rusty Duck.

I'm always a little sad when it's back to school time, but I'm even sadder this year as my son has now actually left school, where did the time go? Those little ducklings are so cute, and Mr Frog will be your ally keeping those pesky slugs at bay. I wish I could attract a few more in to my garden.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6235841642149423068.post-79037411904851761462013-06-03T23:59:14.705+01:002013-06-03T23:59:14.705+01:00Hi CJ, thanks for your comment on rusty duck today...Hi CJ, thanks for your comment on rusty duck today, it's great to find you in return!
