Spot the smooth newts! How many can you count in this picture? These young newts were found using this log as a refugia, i.e. hiding place, at Pelsall North Common during a recent reptile walk with our Coalface to Wildspace team and @BBC_ARG_ @HeritageFundUK

Moving Frogspawn: The unseen issues
@Freshwaterhabs are looking for volunteers to take part in the Urban Pond Count Project, an England-wide survey to help us estimate the number of ponds in urban areas, so we can help protect them and the species they support. freshwaterhabitats.org.uk/projects/urban…

We're asking people to help us estimate the number of ponds in England, so we can help protect them and the species they support.
It's that time of year again! We need your help to keep track of amphibians in Birmingham and the Black Country!
The first #spawnwatch reports from across our region have started coming in! Make sure you let us know if you spot frogs, toads, or their spawn. @WTBBC have a handy form linked below, and you can send any other records to us via @EcoRecording or recordpool.org.uk 🐸🦎🐍
Have you spotted any spawn? Now's the time that frogs and toads will emerge from their winter hibernation and head straight to nearby ponds to breed! You can help us to monitor these key species by taking part in #SpawnWatch! Submit your sightings here: bbcwildlife.org.uk/Spawnwatch
A fantastic day at Pelsall Common today, huge thanks to everyone who came along and helped us 🦎🐸🦎 We spent a good few hours clearing young trees from important heathland habitat and added to a nicely developing brash heap. Another great BBCARG result 😁
If you live in or near #Walsall, why not join our #CoalfaceToWildspace team for their community tree planting days? They will be working together with @WalsallCouncil to plant trees, provided by the @WoodlandTrust. More info: froglife.org/events/ Thanks to the @WestMids_CA
#ToadPatrol season is approaching, and patrols are looking for volunteers. To see patrols that need help, visit: ow.ly/5bBQ50QpU8R You can also search for and contact your local Toad Patrol by using our #ToadsOnRoads map: ow.ly/IRMq50QpU8Q
And we’re a go! Won’t be long till we start getting sightings in more places across the country. As always you can submit sightings via recordpool.org.uk 🐸

Heathlands are essential habitats for reptiles and amphibians and if not managed carefully they can become shaded, with birch trees usually the first to arrive. Today we removed a good amount of young birch trees at @SuttonParkNNR to keep the habitat suitable for reptiles🦎
