I happened upon this bullfrog with a polliwog too large to make a quick meal of it. Never did see the adult tadpole tail disappear. After an hour the frog moved on to other parts.

Cuckoo - Cuculus Canorus
Norfolk
The common cuckoo (Cuculus canorus) is a member of the cuckoo order of birds, Cuculiformes, which includes the roadrunners, the anis and the coucals.
This species is a widespread summer migrant to Europe and Asia, and winters in Africa. It is a brood parasite, which means it lays eggs in the nests of other bird species, particularly of dunnocks, meadow pipits, and reed warblers. Although its eggs are larger than those of its hosts, the eggs in each type of host nest resemble the host's eggs. The adult too is a mimic, e that species is a predator, the mimicry gives the female time to lay her eggs without being seen to do so.
The English word "cuckoo" comes from the Old French cucu and it first appears about 1240 in the poem Sumer Is Icumen In - "Summer has come in / Loudly sing, Cuckoo!" in modern English.
The scientific name is from Latin. Cuculus is "cuckoo" and canorus, "melodious ".
A study using stuffed bird models found that small birds are less likely to approach common cuckoos that have barred underparts similar to the Eurasian sparrowhawk, a predatory bird. Eurasian reed warblers were found more aggressive to cuckoos that looked less hawk-like, meaning that the resemblance to the hawk helps the cuckoo to access the nests of potential hosts. Other small birds, great tits and blue tits, showed alarm and avoided attending feeders on seeing either (mounted) sparrowhawks or cuckoos; this implies that the cuckoo's hawklike appearance functions as protective mimicry, whether to reduce attacks by hawks or to make brood parasitism easier.
The common cuckoo is an obligate brood parasite; it lays its eggs in the nests of other birds. At the appropriate moment, the hen cuckoo flies down to the host's nest, pushes one egg out of the nest, lays an egg and flies off. The whole process takes about 10 seconds. A female may visit up to 50 nests during a breeding season. Common cuckoos first breed at the age of two years.
More than 100 host species have been recorded: meadow pipit, dunnock and Eurasian reed warbler are the most common hosts in northern Europe; garden warbler, meadow pipit, pied wagtail and European robin in central Europe; brambling and common redstart in Finland; and great reed warbler in Hungary.
Studies were made of 90 great reed warbler nests in central Hungary. There was an "unusually high" frequency of common cuckoo parasitism, with 64% of the nests parasitised. Of the nests targeted by cuckoos, 64% contained one cuckoo egg, 23% had two, 10% had three and 3% had four common cuckoo eggs. In total, 58% of the common cuckoo eggs were laid in nests that were multiply parasitised. When laying eggs in nests already parasitised, the female cuckoos removed one egg at random, showing no discrimination between the great reed warbler eggs and those of other cuckoos.
It was found that nests close to cuckoo perches were most vulnerable: multiple parasitised nests were closest to the vantage points, and unparasitised nests were farthest away. Nearly all the nests "in close vicinity" to the vantage points were parasitised. More visible nests were more likely to be selected by the common cuckoos. Female cuckoos use their vantage points to watch for potential hosts and find it easier to locate the more visible nests while they are egg-laying.
when the garden has deconstruction occurring, collateral damage happens, and stuff piles up.
we need to clean up.

My first play with long exposures......I'm starting to get into this photography stuff!
Taken at Milarrochy Bay, 3/4 mile from Balmaha on the Bonnie Bonnie banks...
Explored 23rd January 2009.....Thanks everyone!
“Nothing good comes easily. You have to lose things you thought you loved, give up things you thought you needed. You have to get over yourself, beyond your past, out from under the weight of your future. The good stuff never comes when things are easy. It comes just when you think it never will.”
― Shauna Niequist
It must be about time for the good stuff! Right?!
A photographer’s dream come true! I couldn’t believe my luck when I saw all of the cool stuff in one spot—ghost signs on an old building, a bottle tree, blue windows and doors, and then…STUFF! Whirlygigs and springs and a birdbath and rust! I’ll be back, little spot on historic C Street in Springfield, Missouri!

Lots of people locally in my part of the U.K. donated goods to send to Ukraine. There was a list of what was needed most, for example torches, batteries, sanitary products, first aid. The donations were sorted, boxed and driven over to the Polish border in vans by fleets of volunteers. We took over some things to a local collection point. The room was piled high with bags of all shapes and sizes. This one caught my eye. It was a bag of teddies for Ukrainian children. I’ve added “Stuffed With Love” for the Smile On Saturday challenge. Teddies were not listed as needed, but who’d argue.
