      Thank you Linley! In most places the water dried up before the eggs developed into tadpoles.

      Thank you EG! I was lucky. In many places the water dried up before there were tadpoles.

    Amazing to see so many tadpoles, hard to imagine them all hopping around on land as frogs. :)

      Thank you Diane! They'd disappear in the forest, but it would be very cool.

    I guess it is good that so few survive-- otherwise we would be up to our foreheads in frogs (or is it up to our toupees in toads?)

      Thank you Kenneth! They're good at hiding in the forest. I don't think we would have to be afraid of that. :)
