Spring is here?

Well perhaps. Certainly, our plots are beginning to spring into colour and are teeming with new life.

I spotted these tadpoles to be in my wildlife pond yesterday. Then these:

The two bodies of spawn are in the same small pond, but they are very different in appearance. The first are round and large in a big round ball of spawn. The second lot are small, elliptical and in a flat, thin body of spawn.

Any idea why the difference?

Other than that, all around the site we have some lovely splashes of colour.

Any more photos going? It would be great to have them.
