Easy Fish Come, Easy Fish Go...

So the fish came, and the fish went...and the 8 frogs and a newt went too!

Liam decided that it was time get rid of the pond this weekend, despite our new arrivals! So at 7 o'clock on Saturday and Sunday mornings he was out with Megan and Leah (it was much too cold for Sam!) fishing for ...fish and other creatures!

The kids loved finding out what was lurking under the lily pads and they were thrilled to even find one frog, erm, riding on the back of another!!


The highlight of the pond, though was a lovely little newt that me and Leah and Megan REALLY would have loved as a pet! It was quite happy to sit on the girls hands and it had a fantastic spotty belly.

We took all the wild life to Danbury duck pond where they could have a much more fulfilling life! And we can have a big chunk of our garden back!
