    Hope you don't have a repeat of the frog verses the sparrow, of a few years ago :eek:

    I have had more issues with them catching birds then the fish. They may have eaten a goldfish but it appears they have not by the number of goldfish I have. They have never eaten a Koi.

    I wish I could say the same!
    I'm so paranoid since that happened, that I freak out at the sight of ANY frogs by my pond, even the tiniest ones....I don't know how to tell the difference between species when they're small!:(

    I just let nature be nature. I would need to hunt frogs non stop to keep them out, not worth it.

    Agree I just let them be. There are some large bullfrogs in my pond, and they seem to leave my fish alone as far as I can tell. Either way, I consider it population control.

    Cool pic, mine will sit in the duckweed in the bog with its eyes sticking out.
