Tadpoles: The Saga Begins

A week or two ago we found a lot of tadpoles and decided to bring a few home. We brought home 50 tadpoles and they are very interesting

This is where we found our tadpoles for the first time it is a video of them milling about. It was a crowded quagmire near Bowman School. We brought them home in a bucket.

Turns out we also had for the first diurnal course (day) what we thought was a predacious diving beetle nymph but it bit the dust. We fueled the tadpoles on lettuce. and they grew very fast we got them on the 11th and they are very fun to dabble with.

We liberated 30 of them yesterday and we’ve got 20 left. We left the ones we released by a stream near our house.
