Pond dipping in the quadrangle

The John Muir Award Group were out dipping in the quadrangle pond this afternoon looking at the diversity of pondlife we have there.

We also spotted some frog spawn in the Japanese Garden and decided to take it into one of the Biology classrooms to be able to study its development. We set it up in a tank with pond water and oxygenating pond weed and have started a Frog Spawn jotter where we'll record its progress every week.
