Tadpoles (06) – Freedom

In the past two days, a couple other frogs have started to appear. I think they are all larger than Little Man, but they do still have a remnant of their tail. Last night I had three in total and realised that I wouldn’t be able to feed them anything interesting. And as Little Man had just been sat in the same spot mostly, I thought that the frogs would probably be better off in the wild. I released them into my garden (in a semi-rural area) hoping that they will find enough to eat and not become snacks for other animals. I will continue to do so with the others as they come out of the water.
