I had watered them a bit but obviously not enough. We were fortunate here to have a mild but steady rain that saturated the ground nicely. I feared we'd get a huge downpour that would cause a lot of erosion in local streams.<br /><br />That is a lovely photo now gracing the top of your blog.Ken Januskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16984782169460110520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2194161742476128031.post-89383324559856023332012-04-26T14:35:28.882-04:002012-04-26T14:35:28.882-04:00I've just discovered your blog and finding it ...I've just discovered your blog and finding it very interesting. Love the colourful newt, I live in Britain and our newts prefer dull brownish/ green colours that make them difficult to find!Linda Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06799429286538446158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2194161742476128031.post-52532195354651750762012-04-24T05:41:49.674-04:002012-04-24T05:41:49.674-04:00Hi John, Thanks for your nice note.

I look forward to your post the day you see your first one! Hope it is soon as they are handsome little forest creatures.

Very enjoyable post, as always!
You'...Hi Ellen,<br /><br />Very enjoyable post, as always!<br />You'll likely find this difficult to believe, but I've never had the good fortune of seeing a red spotted newt.
