Still no clue and some garden pictures

So it is not the magpie that trumpets during night. I visited more online sound archives of amphibians and found that indeed it has to be some kind of frog or toad, just as son had guessed. I even went to our tiny pond to look out for the culprit of the nightly ruckus, but then I´d have to destroy all the spider nets around the play area of our moonstruck amphibian. I hate spiders, but I am no brute. Why destroy those sticky nets those spiders worked on so hard? Not that I´d be able to identify the nightly noise maker, be it frog or toad. For this I´d have to put my hand on the animal which I really do not want to. What I am afraid of is that our neighbours might raise a complaint and we´d have to fill up the pond. Wish that the animal troublemaker would hold it together, pack up its belongings and migrate to the way bigger pond of our vet where it´d surely find a mate. If not now then in spring, of that I am sure! As if to add insult to injury one of the many magpies around made its funny noises which resemble the amphibians´ ones while I was scouting...



Sedum is flowering nicely this year.



Lots of chillis on the plants. Took them long enough to produce something inedible...



These are the only two and a half fruits on the cornel. Let´s see this positive, it´s two more than last year!



Somewhere in there the toad/frog is dwelling...

Unfortunately there´s more than one neighbour that hears that darn frog rampage during night! But the one you mentioned has a young child himself now and is extra worried for the toddler´s sleep when the young one is at his (father´s) house. Not so when his wife is away with the child...
