Hi. I live in Portland Road near to junction of Leamington Avenue.
ReplyDeleteWhilst I don't have a pond or any type of water feature, found a large toad hiding behind my green recycling bins on Monday 15th in my back garden. After studying it for several minutes, it crawled off never to be seen again (so far Wed 17th).
Neadless to say I take extra care putting my recycling waste out in the garden in the dark for fear of stepping on an unseen one !
Someone near you must have a pond. Do avoid stepping on it as it will eat the slugs.
