I don't know how he managed it, but I discovered this rather confused frog in the birdbath.

Poor thing thought he'd found his very own private pond, and then about half a dozen starlings descended and had a pool party all around him... he looks a little shell-shocked.

I think he appreciated being fished out and put back in the proper pond after that experience!

You know how starlings can be- I doubt they even noticed he was there, poor frog! When they take over the birdbath, they usually empty half the water... on hot days I keep the hosepipe in it on a slow drip, else there would be nothing left for anyone else.
