    Two baby owls parked in a tree at the top of our garden. These were taken at 9.30am about two weeks ago.
    They are still around, we hear them squeaking to their parents for food most nights.

    Look who came to perch on top of our walnut tree this afternoon.  Spent ages eyeing up the pond, presumably looking for frogs.

    Just been out to hunt for vine weevils and was startled by a noise close to my feet. Looked down and saw this! Never really see them very often in my garden so I'm pleased.

    Well done for getting the photo @Jess91  

    We have bright emerald green frogs here and some dark green with bright stripes along their cheeks.  I have yet to get a photo or identify them.

    @Obelixx he froze, probably a bit alarmed by the torch on my phone, my weapon of choice in the war against the evil weevil.

    I stayed long enough to take the photo but I've retreated inside now. I'd quite like him/her to feel welcome here so don't want to disturb him any more than I have done.

    No idea what kind of frog it is though. As I say I've only ever seen one or two here in the 9 years we've lived in the house.

    Looks like a Toad not a Frog
