I have a small pond (approx 10'x5' and 3' deep) that is filled with
tadpoles each summer - spring peepers and occasional green/wood frogs.
In August and September the pond gets full sun from approx 11.30am to
4.30pm and the water can get quite warm. Most tadpoles have matured and
are gone before this happens, but this year they ?seem to have taken
longer than usual and we had a few very hot days in mid July, when there
appeared to be still a lot of legless tadpoles around, after which there
was a major drop in sightings. Is much known about heat tolerance limits
in tadpoles? I have tried to Google this, but am finding it hard to
access any really helpful articles.
