Several ponds have been created in the heart of Ham Common Woods to encourage toads to spawn there rather than crossing the ridiculously busy Church Road to get to Richmond Park. I hope that works and, if nothing else, the ponds provide a useful wet habitat for other wildlife and something else nice for walkers to enjoy while passing through.
Ham Photos is a growing archive of photos of Ham (at the meeting of Richmond upon Thames and Kingston upon Thames in south-west London), where I have lived since 1996. It captures the small changes that are easily missed and delights in the unusual, the unexpected and the unnoticed.

A pond for toads
