At least one out of thousands managed to survive! On the first Sunday in August Ginger saw a fairly large toadpole in the Bridge Pond. When she was telling me about it she said, "I thought it was dead because it just sat on the rock. It was about an inch long and pretty fat. I moved closer to get a better look and guess I spooked it. It swam down and disappeared between some rocks."
So there you have it folks. A toadlet sighting from a reliable source. Be they tenacious or be they lucky or be they both, at least a few of the thousands managed to survive. Amazing... just amazing.

Evolution-only the strong can survive the unknown pond killer. This would be why they lay thousands of eggs. Aren't we lucky to witness this in your tiny little world? I'm all a twitter- what will tomorrow bring? Janine
