Next to the cycle path near my home a pool has formed in the field. It will be gone by the summer (I hope).

I passed it on my bike last week and some movement caught my eye. I looked and saw more frogs in one place than I have ever seen. Many of the frogs were mating and some had formed knots, with eight or ten of their kicking bodies rolling over in the water.

I returned on Saturday to get some photos but it was late and the light was starting to fade. I did get some with the help of the flash.

What do you think?

And another knot of contentment.
