Isn't it amazing how small they are.  I think they're cute, too!!  Cute little (eventual) bug eaters!   o(:-)

Aren't they adorable?  We are all walking very carefully around the pond so we don't step on them.    :o

How cute!  ;D

I just netted a bunch of taddy's that were mostly on the pots in the pond (ready for dry land), I put them in a flower pot in the garden. I'd noticed the bullfrog was skimming the side a lot instead of just sitting on the lily pads, he was eating the baby tads! We have caught and removed seven huge bullfrogs so far this year and taken them to the lake, this one got to stay because he was little. DH says to me "he won't stay little", he was right he's not little anymore. More of  'em just keep coming. I love my frogs and toads, we didn't hardly have any last year because I had let the bullfrogs stay.

But, found more frogs and toads in the pond Sat. morning and am seeing baby tads now. They sure can clean algae from the pond! @O@

I haven't seen any "toadpoles" yet this year, but last year I raised a tadpole (chorus frog) inside until he had all his legs and had lost his tail.  Then I set him loose in my pond.  He was there all year, but I don't know if he still is. 

My grandson caught another tadpole down at the farm pond last week, but my DH accidently dumped the water out.   :'(  We'll have to go down to the farm pond and try again.   ;)
