Gentleman newt
Lady newt
One of the ponds on the heath at The Lodge is full of Smooth Newts up to all sorts at the moment. You can look right in and watch them swimming around and even get reasonable photos. There seemed to be lots of chasing going on today...

You just dumped me back to 1973, catching Newts (and putting them back) in ponds near my parents. They put a school on top of it a few years later.
