Hedgehogs are also welcome visitors but unfortunately they are becoming very rare, if you do see them they are normally squashed on the road. Do you have them in Australia?Anne Wilsonhttp://anirishalternative.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8448820564852330128.post-59217908133669754262015-03-17T13:32:31.857-07:002015-03-17T13:32:31.857-07:00In my normal Aussie way i was "taking the pis...In my normal Aussie way i was "taking the piss" out of Anne, and yet i firmly believe that the male species was God's prototype and that he out did himself with the next model. He stopped after that..... well why wouldnt he. LOL<br /><br />...... and still i ask the question, what's with the frogs. What functional service are they providing for your garden that i am not aware of that has you all ga ga over their sex life. Here in Oz they are very helpful in eating the mosquito larvae but since i have no water on the property, its not such a problem. My neighbour does however and so i have to close the doors at night so that i am not eaten alive.

The boys have been in situ for ten days or so now (including that recent freeze), but not a lady have they been able to charm in with their 'ribbit' siren-song. Not a blob of spawn do we have. Ah well.

I would have thought that this would be a given. <br /><br />Why do you need frogs?<br /><br />Happy St Patricks Day (its here already, today) Ive been out to the factory and greeted our giant sized resident Irishman. He tells me the green beer thats in all the pubs here is an American thing, not Irish. Oh Well. Some days hes full of Irish wit and charm and others hes just a miserable sod. Probably just a male.
