SOMETHING "BIBLICAL" HAPPENING AT DOCHGARROCH!

An extraordinary natural event is currently taking place at Dochgarroch.

The lake adjacent to the towpath road, east side, is unleashing its brood of froglets and toadlets in tens of thousands. Large "clumps" of the wee creatures can be seen in the undergrowth along the side of the towpath road awaiting the cool night before dispersing. The lake has large dark areas where thousand upon thousand are awaiting their time to leave.

If you get the chance, come down now and take a look. But be careful, they're everywhere and easily get squished underfoot.

Do you have photographs of something wild going on in your part of the canal? Please feel free to share on this blog.
