The tadpoles in our pond are about 6 weeks late this year - that must be because of the cold snap we had in early May ad maybe because of the long winter and late Spring we had. We normally have tadpoles in mid to late May but we checked and checked and then gave up checking for them. We figured it was just a bad year for them. Then last weekend we saw bubbles rising in the pond - we went to check and were shocked to find tiny tadpoles! Just before Canada Day!!! A few are big with legs just sprouting but most are tiny baby tadpoles. So at last we are able to finish our life-cycles project.
This week we were also able to finish the bee life-cycles project with the baby bees emerging too from their life cycle completion.
So we have done the butterflies, the seeds and flowers, the bees, and now the tadpoles. Last year we did the meal worms too. 'A' was given grass seeds to grow as well, on Canada Day as part of the Good Growing Edmonton Campaign.
