We are encouraging people across the UK to participate in the PondNet Spawn Survey, launching on 1st December. Anyone can get involved by recording Common Frog and Common Toad spawn they have spotted in their garden, community ponds, or in the countryside.

We have been collecting data on sightings of breeding frogs and toads since 2012. Last year’s survey was the biggest so far, with 2,657 records submitted.

The PondNet Spawn Survey is accessible to all and is a way for adults and children to get outdoors and connect with nature, whilst also helping to provide a better understanding of when and where frogs and toads are breeding.
