I had access to the internet and time to pop in for a visit; I'm so glad I did! This post is perfect. Beautiful with the colorful flowers, heart-warming because of both beautiful dogs and who can't smile when they see that great frog photo? Your posts are so informative and this is a wonderful place to learn something.

We do see quite a few frogs during the rainy season but I haven't seen eleven together at any point of time in my yard. What an adorable picture of the "congregation"...not the right word, I know.:) I also loved seeing the pictures of your dogs and those beautiful flowers. Primulas are available here only during our cooler months. I get envious seeing flowers from your climate! <br /><br />You're welcome to check out the butterflies on my blog. I also have some wildlife pictures at another old Terra farmer. The link is on my sidebar. I'll be checking out your posts now. Your list of butterflies is impressive!<br /><br />Cheers!<br /><br />KanakAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09000965361716090014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7432461418078268195.post-18221348723990682572013-04-14T20:56:04.373+01:002013-04-14T20:56:04.373+01:00It is amazing how well dogs do on three legs.

We don't have one but I have looked locally and not seen any frogspawn yet but everything has been very slow moving here so far. Lovely to see your colourful garden flowers too, they certainly brighten things up.<br /><br />Your dogs are gorgeous. We had a Cavalier King Charles spaniel who spent her last few years quite happily getting around on three legs.<br /><br />It seems an awfully long wait for butterflies this year and with a lot of rain forecast here for the week ahead it looks like I will have to be patient for a bit longer!ShySongbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08148381873578585910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7432461418078268195.post-38234466936421380222013-04-14T07:16:36.413+01:002013-04-14T07:16:36.413+01:00Great series of spring photos Nick.
