A few pics from our trip to the lakes last week.the crow was turning over stones in the stream to get at the insects beneath.The summer migrants proved too elusive.

Frog Chorus
A walk up to Keighley Reservoir from Slippery Ford on 13th was welcomed with a frog chorus with at least 2-300 frogs spawning in a pond at the bottom of the reservoir banking. I sat and watched for at least an hour whilst more frogs arrived across the snow.
I noted with interest Fred's pictures of his first frogs of the year since they have not arrived in my pond yet just a couple of hundred yards away, despite my next door neighbour having spawn in his pond 22nd March.
