A touch of frogs


OK so its another picture of Chester and bears no relation to the text but hes such a handsome lad and much more easy to photograph than frogs who are the amphibian equivalent of boomerangs and return to our "pond" every year for a love in/rave up.
Valentines day or thereabouts heralds their return, this year they were two days early, and today there were hundreds giving it the frogs chorus and turning the water into a foaming mass of frogs spawn and drowned females as the over excited males weigh the poor lass down in a watery death grip. No photos of this frog soup as they are quick off the mark when yours truly's less than light weight approaches and anyway frogs are not so photogenic as our Chester.
