We have thousands of what look like those same tadpoles in my sediment pond and even in my brand new Redear pond that has just reached full pool for the first time this last week.

A while back before all the recent rain we had peeper toads (at least I think that is what they are) that would screech so loud that it almost hurt the ears. I assume (a dangerous thing) the tadpoles are from them.

My pond(s) will go from a nice green cast to kind of a brownish stained cast sometimes. From what I have read here on PBF I assume that is a pyhtoplankton bloom happening taking advantage of the algae bloom.
