Update on the Pond

Once our pond filled up and the frogs all came a courting, we had tadpoles. Lots and lost of tadpoles.

But this is a seasonal pond, and when the rain stops, the pond dries up. And when the pond dries up, the tadpoles do too.

We tried to save some and put a couple handfuls in a bucket. We weren't sure how many we had saved, but we did find this big guy the other night and we have found a bunch of little ones in the pool filter, some alive, some not so much. 

Ron built a little frog house in the garden and we placed some of the saved frogs there. I haven't seen any frogs when we go to the garden, but we did see a gopher snake visiting.
