Thread: Healthy bush

Good to see KJ, i have a bit of a soft spot for the old frog too actually, when i was a kid i had a few of them as pets for a few years. There use to be heaps of those Green and gold buggers around in pretty much any old pond, but they have been on the decline bigtime for ages now. I believe the use of fertaliser and the run off into the waterways causes them some grief.

Supposedly frogs are a very good measure of environmental health. More frogs = healthy eco system. No frogs = problems.
Glad this little patch was on the right side of the ledger.
