It's been raining a lot last week and today is such a clear and beautiful day. When I feed the fish in my pond today, I found so many litle baby frogs in the pond. Maybe hundreds of them, I was wondering if all these baby frog will grow up and become a Frog then my pond wil be full of Frogs... OMG..
But I dont want to take them away, I found that they are cute as long as they are still babies..
I told the gardener about this and he said that the bigger fish will eat them later...
I dont know if fish eat baby frog... Poor baby frogs..

If the fish don't eat them I'm sure some birds will help with others I know they have a fancy word for it but in simple terms - that's life. Some will live to produce more babies while others become food for other creatures. I guess we're lucky to be at the top of the food chain - normally we don't become someone else's dinner.

I know - I don't know what kind you have in your part of the world but around here we have some that although funny looking they are cute in their own way.

You are so right Faith, tonight I am sitting in my desk and one white bird (it look like chicken) come to the pond and eat something from the pond. When I come closer, the bird runaway, and I saw lots of Baby frogs gathered in the place where that bird just eat it.. I am sure that bird just eat my baby Frog..

Are you sure they are baby frogs, I remember years ago I thought I had baby frogs in a little pond i had in the yard until my friend told me I was breeding mosquitoes hahahaha, I hope yours are frogs, I love frogs.

oh yeah.. I know what breeding mosquitos look like so I think it is a baby frogs, because baby fish are smaller than the one I saw.. The gardener also said it is a baby frog...

Do you mean by by baby frogs, tadpoles. Tadpoles grow into frogs. And the sound they make is called croaking. Sometimes frogs can be mistaken for toads. It once rained toads in a town in America after a hurricane, very strange. Have you heard the frog song by Paul Mcartney.

Hi, Afternoontea! I'm back after a long periode of break!
Talking about baby frogs reminds me when I'm in my hometown, Jogja. On this rainy season, I miss it! Yeah... I'm living in Jakarta now, and I don't hear some frogs singing in the pool. So beautiful! Their voice echoes in my ears! Oh my God! I miss my village!

I am about to go home now after finishing my job and it is 11 pm. The Frogs now singing so loud in the pond. One even sit in the lotus leaves and sing.. Hehehe.. I never realize it is funny. I hear the Frog singing everyninght if I am working in the evening shift but not at my house. There I can only hear the motorbike or car passes by..pfff..
