Tadpole treasure!

Looking, looking!
After breakfast Nick, Erin and Vaughan went for a wander along the bore-drain.  Vaughan took his net and bug box for possible catches.  It was quite some time later before they returned with tiny fish, tadpoles and some frogs' eggs.

The catches were transferred to a larger box and we enjoyed watching the developing tadpoles over the next few days.

Vaughan enjoyed dip-netting for fish so much that we needed to encourage a "catch and release" program to limit casualties of his enthusiasm!
