  1. Always interesting to watch tadpole hatchlings :-) I wonder what it feels like to be in the middle!

  2. Hello again, Chris. Good to have your company :)

    I've often wondered if they sing the nursery ditty, 'The one in the middle's the prettiest'! :)

  6. Welcome back, Anonymous, to our little corner of paradise :)

    That's the music that popped into my head as I watched them wiggle this way and that...and turn around :)

  11. Hi again, Wildlife Gardener :-D

    I can see that great fun can be had taking video footage from activities within a pond. Do you get ducks dropping in too?

    Look forward to seeing more games from your pond. I suppose the heron visit, taking frogs away, was 'pass the parcel'!

    Enjoy the rest of your weekend :-D

  12. * Lovely to have you comment twice in one day, Shirl..I feel humbled :)

    We have only seen a pair of mallard ducks once in the front pond and as we had a lot of duckweed that year they wer a welcome sight :)

    When the heron came he was like a hungry pelican scooping up so many frogs; and he had the audacity to return for an extra helping of tadpole soup, so I ran outside and flapped my arms to chase him away :)
