Very wet Sunday but forced myself out onto the hills. Glad I did as I managed to catch a really impressive movement of frogs down off the hill to a small, mesotrophic lochan. There were several hundred just in the vicinity of the path that I was on and every puddle was full of them enjoying, enthusiastically, a bit of Spring behaviour. At least the males seemed to be enjoying it - somewhere under this lot is an unfortunate female!

Hi Malcolm,
You have certainly caught an interesting image! Nice capture!

An interesting image that possibly would have benefited from the use of a polariser just to lose some of the reflections on the wet skin of the frogs; a good sign that spring is finally here though!
Yes Malcom it all kicked off with frogs and Toads down here on Sunday.
I spent a good couple of hors just watching the antics of these amourous creatures.

Are these the ones you trod on?
Just kidding.
Interesting as Rene said.
