more garden action

the Common Backswimmer out and about and swimming, pond frogs and one of my biggest seed eaters

Marsh Harrier and frog

watching this male harrier hunting a field edge it suddenly twisted and dropped into a ditch coming up with this frog that it took away to eat -- while a known food item I think this is the first time I have actually seen a harrier catch a frog

ooops toads ta

pleased to see so much amphibian activity today following the bad winter -- should look harder at them!
