Froggy Friends

Just inside the big garden gate, there is a small spring tucked at the edge of the brush. Decades ago, this spring helped to provide water for the garden. Now is provides a happy home to a number aquatic creatures, including frogs and salamanders.The frogs have been quite visible this year, floating lazily in the water with their heads poking out or sitting up on an exposed pipe in the sunshine. They are yet another reason that I choose to garden organically and pesticide free.
