An Amphibian Afternoon...

Well I had an afternoon out last week in hope of photographing a few frogs, I started by having a walk around one of there usual spawning areas and unusually for me I was right first time around and they were there so I got down low took a few shots then left them up to there business and after looking at my records from last year, they arrived during the exact same week 1 year on, some times nature truly astounds me, how such a small creature can keep track time, I hope that you like the pictures...





After this I headed down to my local river to see if there were any swimming around in the flood pools but surprisingly all I found was toads, hundreds of them, something that I have never seen here before, so I took the opportunity and took a few shots, I hope that you like them...

It's time for something new...

Well once again, it's been a long time, due to university and work but this has given me the chance to do a bit of thinking and I have decided that my blog need a bit a refresh, so out of the many pictures that I have got to upload, this is just a small practise sample, I hope that you like it, please feel free to leave any comments and for anyone who has struggled leaving comments due to the word verification, I have recently removed it...










Thanks always Lee Harrison.

You've Heard of Doggy Style... Now what About Froggy style?

I had a walk through Birkacre last week at evening time, lots of little birds knocking about on the feeders and in the top of the trees, which included a very nice Nuthatch, Tree Creeper, Bullfinch and all the small tits and finches that you might expect...

Nuthatch

Tree Creeper

Bullfinch

On my way through I came across a group of Common Frogs indulging in a bit of "rumpy pumpy" in a small pool covered in algae a sure sign that spring is on its way and the warmer weather is coming. Here are a few pics. I took whilst the Light was still with me although a some of my pics were taken with a rear flash, they ain't the best pics but its not as if I'm a pro.:-

And the finished product, the next generation of of baby frog ready to grow into the gorgeous amphibian's we see today...
