Nice picture of the vole Stefan. Did you find that other pond pic? The one with the frogs?

Sorry, I could have sworn that I had a picture of that pond, but I was wrong.

Never mind! Tomorrow I'm driving south to a place I know...hoping to collect a pair of Grass Snakes. If all goes well I should have some pictures to post!

Re: The Nature Photography Thread



This is the best I could do. :/

Edit: My mistake, wrong pond. The right one is just beyond that one.

You just wouldn't expect to find Rana temporaria there, would you?

Re: The Nature Photography Thread

Nope. Anyway, here's the right one:



There didn't used to be any tadpoles in that pond until 4 or 5 years ago. The problem with that pond is that there's normally nothing to eat there, so the frogs don't develop in time. Fortunately they'll eat anything.

I dump in that pond whatever seaweeds I accidentally catch when I'm fishing and that seems to be enough for the tadpoles. I didn't do it a couple of years back (as an experiment) and the tadpoles didn't even develop legs before winter came.

There was supposed to be a nice big doe in that last picture, but the bugger ran off. =P
