A large flower pot of seashells sits on the side of our house and recently filled with rainwater. I was going to dump the water to prevent mosquitoes, but found dozens of tadpoles, in various sizes.


There are three in this photo. One large tadpole is in the center. I'm sorry the photo is so poor. It was difficult to photograph the tadpoles because of the reflections in the water.

Information on raising tadpoles can be found here.
We have raised tadpoles many times and it, along with watching caterpillars become moths, has been a favorite aspect of nature study at our house. We highly recommend it.
