    We don't have any😩. I've had my pond about 5 years. Found a small frog in front garden but never in back.

    Small amount of frog spawn this morning here in Newcastle Upon Tyne about 2 weeks earlier than previous years .

    I walked down to the pond today and all the tads are swimming around, don’t know how long they’ve been hatched, hopefully one or two will survive to become a frog. 
    Is it 1 - 100 survival rate? 
    Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor.

    Not a blob of spawn yet in my very new pond. Mind I'm still working round it so perhaps that's why. The birds are using it though at last!

    No more spawn but the gardener said he saw loads of frogs so maybe they are still ‘courting’. 
    My garden and I live in South Wales.

    Found small amounts here in East Yorkshire yesterday. Lots of mating couples and the newts look Clive too. 😊😊
