Sounds a lovely pond. I'll check out your point about transferring tadpoles.
The pond has now been filled with water and I'm hopeful that the project is getting back on track. Will update asap.

The latest update on the Frog pond fiasco is that Robby and the Haringey Parks people have filled the pond with water today. Tadpoles have moved in and are staging a sit in. Let's show the complainant that we value wildlife and bio-diversity by coming along to the planting session on April 22nd . Please bring frogspawn if you have any spare in your pond.
Albert Road Rec extends a warm welcome to all amphibians !
It seems not everyone is keen to promote biodiversity and wildlife habitats in our park. Apparently a resident has complained about the state of the pond to Froglife who have now decided to fill it in. This is very sad as we had a planting and maintenance day planned for April 22nd with local residents keen to help. The Conservation Volunteers had also offered to assist in developing a healthy pond. It's unfortunate that such a promising project is now likely to be abandoned. While the pond area may look unfinished at present with a bit of local input it could have become a valuable asset to the park.
