On October 17 we drafted off 100 of the tadpoles from the glyphosate container for Brian Barry's pond at Cocamba. They've had the pond installed for the same amount of time as us but haven't heard any frogs there yet - also not spotted in surveys by BCG's Jon Starks. The project has finished and we were keen to repopulate it.
The funny thing was, we got there and were sure we saw a frog slip under the surface as we walked up to the pond. It may or may have not been but it now has plenty of company. Brian's pond is beautiful and clear, with some lovely vegetation around it. Once the tadpoles had been emptied in we could see them swimming around in the centre of the pond quite clearly.
