Eaten all the pies, flies and slugs
24th August 2015
Knowing August is one of the tricky months for photographing wildlife when the birds aren't at their best & the animals are hiding after the harvest, I've taken to lifting stones and logs and even the odd traffic cone to find things that lurk beneath.
Over on Algy's farm where all manner of wildlife is fed and pampered the vegetable patch has been suffering from the very unwanted attentions of a slew of slugs. Fortunately nature has come to the rescue in the form of a defensive surge by the frogs who frequent the many ponds around the farm.
Our Common Frogs are looking rather gorgeous at the moment due to their high protein slug diet no doubt. Generously proportioned for sure,looking as though they have eaten all the pies and some, glossy and shiny, with a bounce as high as a house should you try to catch one.
