I don't particularly follow timings of frogs but do of blossom and
butterflies. Things are probably two, maybe even three, weeks or more
later than has we have been used to in recent years

The frogs were out about the same time as normal here (Lancs coast).

Frogs first seen in pond on 21st February, several large clumps of frogspawn
noted on 1st March.

Maybe this had something to do with all the cold and snow completely
by-passing our part of the NW.



After a good 6 weeks of thrashing, splashing and croaking the frogs have
finally produced their first dollops of spawn in our pond today (8th April).
The thrashing, splashing and croaking continues. Most of the daffodils are in
full bloom now.
