About Me

My photo
I'm a simple Scottish girl with an unusual name and a strange obsession for nail polish! My aim is to capture what the eye sees, with a camera! Too much nail polish and never enough time. I have also started wildlife photography, which I enjoy very much. Welcome to my little world :-)

Spawning

Last week when I visited the pond, the frogs and toads were at it! I am hoping for lots of babies this year, as last year was bad and there weren't a lot. 






These were all taken last week. Frogspawn is a clump as in the first photo and Toad Spawn is usually in a line as seen in the second photo under the little fellow's chin!
