It’s that time of year again – some of you may remember that I’ve written before about the toad patrol. A busy road passes through some local woods, cutting off the woodland where many toads hibernate from the deep ponds where...

Spring is here and that means it’s time for the toad patrol again. Last year I found out about this scheme, organised by the charity Froglife http://www.froglife.org/, which helps to save toads from being squashed at places where...

I stopped at Edgewater Park this morning before work instead of at lunch. Not much in terms of new things to see but this frog was poking its head out of the pond this morning.

I saw this little guy (or girl) on my way back to the car and grabbed a photo. It was at the bottom of a small dam where most of the algae from the pond above it was washing out.

I saw this little guy (or girl) on one of the trails and was able to get a halfway decent photo of it, thanks mostly to the fact it was very cooperative. I think it might have been grateful for me scaring off the snake that was...

I did as planned and took my walk at lunchtime today rather than in the morning. As it turns out, there were two pretty nice benefits to doing that. First, since the park is only about two minutes from my office, versus 15-20...

My oldest daughter spotted this little guy while we were crossing a bridge. I was surprised it stayed so still while all of us were snapping photos.

A couple of weeks ago I signed up for a local ‘Toads on the roads’ scheme after seeing a poster asking for helpers. There is a nationwide scheme broadly organised by the charity Froglife, but basically everything comes down to one...

Hello myLotters! As a newt owner I'm curious if anyone else here on myLot own any newt(s) or any other kind of amphibian. If you do, what kind of amphibian/newt do you own? How long have you had it/them? Why did you decide...
