Polliwogs by grammyn

Polliwogs

............or tadpoles. I looked in my rainbarrel yesterday and it was filled with polliwogs. I went to get my camera but got sidetracked and forgot until it was too late to get a good shot in the light. l remembered this morning. If you look closely you can see the legs already developing on some of them. I counted close to 36 here
Oh wow, how lovely!

Exciting! Frogs are wonderful to have around. We delighted in watching our tadpoles progress last summer too.

How exciting! Now to watch them grow into frogs

It should be fun to watch them grow.

I think it is a great shot of the tadpoles.

Wow- that's a lot of little froggies!
July 23rd, 2022  
it's too bad you didn't get to shoot them yesterday. you would've seen the vast difference in their growth in that 24 hours time. that's going to be a lot of noise!

How interesting—great find with all sorts of photographic possibilities—right at your own rain barrel!

What a cool shot of those tiny tadpoles
July 23rd, 2022  
Cool little swimmers

How fun and interesting. But where will all these tadpoles (frogs) end up? It should be fun watching them grow.

How wonderful, as kids we used to catch them in the river to take home. Amazing to watch how they develop.

What a wonderfully fun shot! I hope you’ll show us progress in a few days.
July 23rd, 2022  
New word to me! That's a lot of them too
July 23rd, 2022  
polliwogs is such a fun name tho
July 23rd, 2022  
Great polliwogs. I will now use this word.
July 23rd, 2022  
Love the name! They are growing fast….already having hind legs
July 23rd, 2022  
gosh I wonder how they got into your rainbarrel. It's a great shot of all these little fish. Will you let them go into a stream or creek somewhere?
July 23rd, 2022  
That's a name I've never heard before, I love it. I'm not sure I would be so fascinated though especially when they start to hop around. 😄

@tinley23 I am glad you think so Lesley
@kartia thank you Kartia. I love watching the transformation
@kjarn it is very entertaining Kathy
@shutterbug49 I always enjoy watching it
@thewatersphotos I really appreciate that Gary. The reflections on the water made it a little problematic
@olivetreeann I was surprised to see so many too
@summerfield what can I say? old age and memory keeps me from lots of things these days. I do like to listen to them so I won''t mind the noise
@mcsiegle If I can just remember to take advantage of the opportunity
@milaniet Thank you so much Milanie I am glad you like it
@dutchothotmailcom thanks Esther
@madamelucy Thank you Terri. I really don't know where they all end up. I suppose some of them die and some get eaten?
@ludwigsdiana Even better they come to me and I don't have to hunt them. it is great fun to watch them
@marilyn If I remember I may thanks sissy
@30pics4jackiesdiamond i am so excited to teach YOU a new word and yes it is a lot
@koalagardens I am so glad yo uthink so Katrina thank you
@wakelys LOL! Finally I can contribute to the other side! I am glad to hear it Sue
@jacqbb So glad you like it ! Yes soome of them do have legs already
@randystreat they got there because frogs lay eggs in water and that is where they grow. They are not fish but frogs and when they are finished growing they will hop out of the barrel and be on their way
@serendypyty You are not the first person from your side of the pond to tell me that. I am glad you like it though. They hop off so I really never see them much. I imagine some of them die or get eaten by other animals
@joemuli thanks bunches Joe

And you know what, we're so woke here you'd not be allowed to use this word for fear of offence!!

@wakelys you'll offend someone or other!!!
July 25th, 2022  
@30pics4jackiesdiamond Is that because it might be an ethnic slur or some other reason similar? You’ll have to explain that to me
