last summer we put a pond in the back yard. its got a stream, you know, that whole thing.

earlier this summer we started hearing a frog around the pond. never did find the little bastard, cuz there's a lot of plant life around the pond.

today i took my dog outside so he could shit on my lawn (jerk) and i was wandering around the yard looking at stuff and bam

i looked in the pond and there's like TWENTY FUCKING TADPOLES IN THE POND

the pond is only like six feet across, and this summer i was wondering why we weren't having a problem with mosquitos (mosquitos lay eggs in still bodies of water, so like water pooling in a wheelbarrow or in a storm gutter that doesnt drain is mosquito breeding grounds). i guess that explains that.

there was two frogs for a while and they made a shitload of noise. i sorta saw this coming because if they arent fucking why would they make so much noise?

There were actually tadpoles in our old sandbox with water (though no sand) in it a few years ago. They were toads though, this area is rather dry. We actually added dechlorinated water to it because it would have evaporated, and that would have been messy. It was neat when 100 tiny toads started jumping out everywhere. GLHF

I mean it really was neat, I've never seen 100 small toads (or frogs) emerge and jump off into the world (most of them to die probably )

Alright, I have to admit that it would be pretty badass to have a bunch of eagles flying around your yard at all times. You win.

Heeeeellll yeah the sound of bull frogs is so epic. My friend's family owns some property out in the boonies, and last time I was there with him and a lot of friends, and we were all laying on a blanket in a big forest clearing at night stargazing, telling dirty jokes (it was a mixed crowd so no homo), and just enjoying ourselves. There was a lake nearby and the constant sound of bull frogs was so awesome to hear, being a person who lives just shy of the city. There were a lot of bugs though, so hopefully the bull frogs eat them all.

A proud eagle or hawk wouldn't eat the frogs.

Steve, I think you need to draw us a MS Paint picture of these tadpoles, and there soon to be "Frog" state.

I don't get it, a pond with a stream??? And if that is possible, shouldn't the tadpoles be taken by the current?

its a weak stream, there's a pump at the bottom of the pond with a screen over it so the tadpoles can't get sucked in

but its not a strong pump, they can just swim around when the stream is running

That's pretty cool. Fakesteve will be popular with all the 5 year old boys who unleash frogs in schoolhouses, even though it feels like an anachronism.
