Whoever - my husband keeps a wildlife diary and we first noticed frogspawn in our pond on 22nd January. Last year it was January 29th. We live in East Devon by the way.
I found frogspawn this morning in the handhold of a manhole cover (this is the 3rd year). 2 years ago I managed to raise several frogs from it in a washing up bowl - no room for a pond, but none survived last year. Let's hope for better luck this year. I am in Bristol.
