During the recent mild and damp weather frogs have been calling and courting.In a local pond we noticed masses of spawn on the 13th of February;we even found frog spawn on the Dol y moch basket ball court a little later!A couple of evening ago ( 27th Feb), driving home from the Centre, the journey took longer than usual because the damp roads were crawling with frogs making their way to ponds and lakes to breed.I estimate I saw 150 frogs, sadly at least a third had been killed by passing vehicles.Just imagine how many frogs are killed on the roads at this time each year.
