Walked up to Turlough Hill this morning there was loads in tbe different parts of the bogs.
I for one welcome our new frog overlords.
If it’s an accessible place, you could invest in fencing it with a bit of sheep wire. A lot of frog spawn and tadpole ponds are decimated by a few pets marching through.
Looks like you’ve got some ditch in your frog spawn
We call them tailtoads.
Ya love to see it!
Gonna use that phrase as a flex from now on.
Early in the year for that kid of carry on. Right enough though I always though May was frogspawn time.
Fun fact! You have to have a license in Ireland to remove or otherwise disturb frog spawn. You get them the National Parks & Wildlife Service and there is a special teachers license you can get so you can bring frog spawn into schools for abit of learning.
Another fun fact it is an especially good year for frogs apparently, can’t move for frogs spawn near my house
In Glendalough last week I could here frogs in the ponds along the board walk, big ones and lots too
That’s my ditch.
That’s great so see the biodiversity in Ireland is in a bad way 🐸
Forbidden bubble tea
This brought back a memory from childhood. We had a small pond near our house and one year it was full of this and it had a rickety bridge going it and one of the kids from the street decided to cross, bridge snapped and she fell in, got covered in this stuff. It was rotten.
That water looks a little bubbly friend… wait a minute
Id always see the water channels in Glendalough filled with frog eggs, I try to visit every other week just to see how they get on.
is it bad that I’m fighting the urge not to eat it as if it was boba?
Take a bucket home. Put in a paddling pool. Take over your town with forgs.
Lads.
You know the way it’s illegal to take frogspawn from the wild?
What I don’t get is that probably 99% of them get eaten before they can even become frogs, and if you were to nurture some through tadpolehood and release them later, wouldn’t you be doing frogkind a favour?
