A couple of photo's of the re-introduced Northern clad Pelophylax lessonae in Norfolk,(Photo taken 2013). They have been so successful that this year,I believe,several hundreds have now been released back in their last known site at Thompson common so hopefully they will soon become established for all to see (or more likely hear) in the future.

Fabulous! I would love to see them one day for myself. I thought the originals were in a secret site in Suffolk (you said the photos were taken in 2013) or am I being totally stupid?

Correct. It's surprising what you can find out. The secret site is in Norfolk and will never be disclosed by me at least. Have only now put the photo's on the forum due to the possiblities of further sightings at the second release site which is run by The Norfolk Wildlife Trust and who have announced this location on their website
