Frog went a courtin' and he did ride, uh-huh

This post is dedicated to the huge and quite frankly, quite hideous frog gang bang that recently took place in our garden pond.

Over the course of a 48hr period, we were kept awake at night by the grunting and gentle splish splash of  "frog sex" and in the morning, were left to view the carnage of convergent copulation by huge swathes of frog spawn.

Some spawn has fallen victim to the "pond-dipping net" which #1 was using to fling "the jelly" at #2, but on the whole, it has to be noted that we are not going to have a shortage of young froglets in the near future.

I have "put my foot down" (not literally) on allowing the frog spawn in the house but we are daily checking on progress and will update accordingly.
