“First baby frogs appearing in the garden {Dublin] today. Summer is here!”

What do they eat?

They nourish themselves “with their own yolk sacks“.

The Curragh Plains, Co Kildare

Eamonn writes:

“Hundreds of frogs have been found dead at the natural pond on the Curragh Plains in Co. Kildare, known as Lough Bawn (the White Lake). The Herpetological Society of Ireland collected samples from the frogs and the water and are awaiting the results. Lough Bawn is associated with St. Brighid and is thought to be the Lake of Cream, resulting from an overflow of milk when the saint prayed for a miracle to allow her offer hospitality to an unexpected visit from a number of bishops.”

A bit of nerd trivia, this series was filmed (by Crossing the Line films) using a Phantom High Speed Camera (1,000 frames p. second) the same kind of camera used in Christopher Nolan’s ‘Inception’.
