Frog parents

 
The Madwoman has become a Frogmother again!
The frogs have started to spawn in the front garden pond.
She's quite pleased about this as lots of spawn was laid in the mini pond
 on the allotment and then it snowed and froze and turned into crunchy stuff ...
Of course they all vanished when she got the camera out, except for this one ...
 
 
Our job is to keep an eye out for cats:
we just spotted one fishing around in the pond with a paw.
The Madwoman gets really cross as they catch the frogs and then leave them in dismembered pieces, sometimes still alive.
So we tell the Madwoman when there's one out there,
and if our barking doesn't scare it off,
then the Madwoman and her super-powerful water pistol does.
Never mess with the Madwoman's frogs ...

We're not sure the pink fairy tutu is a good idea though ...
