Now is a great time to dig a pond! It will rapidly fill up with water over the winter, ready for new life to arrive in the spring. For advice on how to go about it, see our #JustAddWater guide: ow.ly/sQfH50TC8UR

Its fab to see our fellow patrollers in Warminster applying for a road closure to help the amphibians on their journeys to breeding ponds. We've seen ourselves what a positive impact closing a road has for amphibians. This would be a very welcome 4th road closure in the UK

Some of our volunteers have seen amphibians on the move across Charlcombe Lane heading towards the breeding lake. This is unprecedented as they normally start moving in February - our changing climate is confusing the biological clocks of our amphibians

With the very wet and mild weather frogs, toads and newts have been spotted on the move across Charlcombe Lane. Please drive carefully looking out for amphibians

I had a great chat with @CharlieTaylor4 on @bbcsomerset yesterday about the @toadrescue and our best year since 2010. Managed to get a cricketing analogy in, comparing looking for amphibians with going in to bat in cricket 💚🐸 I'm on at 3hr15 bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0…


We had our busiest year since 2010 for amphibians with 3,225 frogs, toads and newts helped across Charlcombe Lane. Thank you to all of our fab volunteers and to the local community for their support 💚🐸
