I would bring them home, put them in a gold fish bowl and watch them every-day as their tails slowly dissapeared and their little legs appeared. I would keep them for a short time and then release them back into the pond and start all over again with a new batch of tad-poles. my mother got quite a kick out of this as I am a girl! I was quite a tom boy and was always bringing home a stray kitten or dog or an injured pigeon. we nursed it back to health as it had a broken leg and my dad set his leg with popcycle sticks. it worked too! my grand-children appreciate the fact that I under-stand this fasination with bugs worms, toads and frogs, and, whatever else they bring in. ha ha! thanks for reminding me of a fun time in my life!!!!!..............still young at heart! this post certainly brings back memories from when I was a kid. we were always looking for tad poles in the ponds.
