Frogs and Toads

If you go down to the woods today, you are sure to be suprised......... The little green frogs who belong here are celebrating to express gratitude to Bela and Pramod and Neeten for doing such a great job at clearing out Cane Toads. Last night Bela went all over the greys lane side, (Sat and Hasyas, Mitra etc) hunting for Toads and found NONE!!! Pramod and i went through Bodhas, and mine and his and Tess's and NONE EITHER!!! Maybe it is just the cooler weather....but maybe it is the great Toad Catcher designed by Pramod......badminton racket with little pocket made from plastic salad sieve, ....or the ever so persitant hunting of Bela. I have recently been given a bio dynamic prep 500 to improve/balance our soils bacteria and fungi (increase availability of nutrients) and have been told I can add some dead, cooked Toad juice to help them. stay far away. This delivery will be four times within one year, and the first spraying will be between the 25th of April and 10 days from that. If anyone is willing to help me do the one hour (vortex, chaos, liquid stirring), I appreciate it. I come back from Canberra on the 28th so maybe a few days after that we can do the biodynamic ritual.
