This is the time of year when the Marsh Froglets start to emerge. You can often see them loafing around on the emergent vegetation with various numbers of legs and enormous tails. Funnily enough, when they have absorbed the tail and grown their legs properly they actually leaf the water smaller than they are as tadpoles at the moment!

Brian Churches actually manged to video them! Enjoy!
