Of Frogs and Birds

Some of the things that have made the garden interesting this last week or so:-


The Sparrows are chirruping away throughout the day; suggesting they are ready to start nest building.



Meanwhile this bird was singing away for most of the morning of 7th March but I could not get a decent enough photo to identify it.


Cleaning out the ponds a bit on 8th March I came across plenty of newts, including this baby one.


There were also a few pairs of mating frogs. I tried to disturb those as little as possible but this pair briefly got caught in the net.


On 9th March a storm broke down all the Pampas Grass. It will soon be pinched by the birds for nesting material.
