Frogwatch - hop on board.

In 2005 Froglife launched Frogwatch, a national survey to find out more about urban distributions of widespread amphibians, discovering more about their habits and about their garden habitats. The data also has wider conservation significance, acting as control data for our Frog Mortality Project

The campaign is ongoing and we require as many respondents as possible.

Anyone with a garden pond can participate. If you need help working out which amphibians you have spotted then our Amphibian Identification Guide might come in useful.
