Have I Got Newts For You

I haven't been down to the Lagoon lately but Graham H tells me there are tadpoles, flowers and plants making an appearance, plus Andy's recent discoveries. Based on last year's experience, it's likely there are other creatures lurking in the Lagoon's murky depths, such as the ones below that dwell in my garden pond. As well as some egg-laying action, now's your chance to compare two top underwater predators: the tail-driven Common Newt and the jet-propelled Dragonfly Nymph.  Click here for local newts bulletin.
