      I was a amazed yesterday when I saw my local Pond on Putney Heath, full of spawn. Have been at our other home along with dad for the last week in Eltham ( with my garden), so missed the annual frog manoeuvre from nearby stream to pond. It usually happens over 3 to 4 days after heavy rain and when walking the dog at night, you really need to tread carefully as the paths are stacked full of hundreds of commuting frogs. I seem to have missed it this year but it seems so early. I'm sure it's usually late March or April that it all happens?
