We are on the borders of the Haute Garonne and the Gers, near Samatan.For the first time ever I am finding dead bats in and around our barn - a long-eared and a short-eared.And the little colony of pipistrelles seems to have disappeared.Is anyone else finding dead bats - and does anyone know why?I would guess it's due to the terrible spring, so there are far fewer insects than usual; worse, are there new insecticides that are killing the bat population?Any comments? Any help?

Brilliant - many thanks!

I can't get hold of the thread - could you try re-identifying it as it could be very useful to me, thanks

I have a fairly natural pond in the garden, and this year we have about a dozen enormous tadpoles. They are around 4 inches long, with very large bodies and smallish tails.They are not newt tadpoles (efts) as there are no external gills. Anyway, I believe newt tadpoles are small.Can some-one please help with identifying them, and advise on what to do if they are not a native species?Thanks!By the way, I Googled "huge tadpoles" and they are not as big as the ones you see on Herp Nation - which is a relief! - give yourself a treat (?) and have a look!
