No spawn here yet, but we saw our first double decker on Sunday. Himself has been noting the date of first frog spawn in our ponds (2 in the back garden, one in the front) for many years. It was always within a day or two of March 19th here - but a couple of weeks earlier last year. We often get frogs clumping - several stuck together in a big pile, which has led him to the theory that frogs have about 5 sexes and you need one of each in the heap for frog spawn!
